To be sure, you need to check the following specifications for both the Chrysler 300 rims and the Cadillac DTS:
* Bolt Pattern (PCD): This is the crucial specification. It indicates the number of lug nuts and the diameter of the circle they form. For example, 5x114.3 means five lug nuts on a circle with a 114.3mm diameter. These must match exactly.
* Center Bore: This is the diameter of the hole in the center of the wheel that fits over the hub on the car. A wheel with a smaller center bore can be used with a centering ring, but a larger center bore is a problem.
* Wheel Offset: This is the distance between the wheel's mounting surface and its centerline. Incompatible offset can cause handling problems and potential rubbing against suspension components.
* Wheel Diameter and Width: Although similar sized rims *might* fit, differences here can also lead to clearance issues.
You can usually find these specifications stamped on the inside of the rim itself, in your owner's manual, or online using your vehicle's year, make and model. Compare the specifications carefully before attempting to use the wheels. Using wheels with incompatible specifications can be dangerous.
