    Cruze wheels

    I use 16" wheels on my 2017 Bolt which had 17". No problems. I prefer smaller wheels because tires are cheaper and I feel that more sidewall = more cushioning over rough pavement. The 5x105 bolt pattern is definitely rare. Good resources for checking wheel compatibility and comparing tire...
