What other cars have the same wheel bolt pattern as an 88 fiero?

The 1988 Pontiac Fiero has a 4x100 bolt pattern (4 lug nuts, 100mm bolt circle diameter). This is a relatively common pattern, especially on smaller cars. Therefore, many cars from various manufacturers and years share this pattern. However, it's crucial to check more than just the bolt pattern before swapping wheels. Things like wheel offset, hub bore size, and brake caliper clearance must also be compatible.

Finding a definitive list of *all* cars with a 4x100 pattern is difficult because databases aren't comprehensive and manufacturers sometimes change specs within model years or across different trim levels.

To find compatible wheels, you're better off using a wheel compatibility checker website (many exist; just search "wheel compatibility checker") or consulting a wheel and tire retailer. These tools allow you to input your Fiero's year and model and show you wheels that are guaranteed to fit. You'll want to be sure to select your specific Fiero model to take into account any possible variations.

In short, many cars use a 4x100 pattern, but blindly assuming compatibility based on the bolt pattern alone is risky. Always verify compatibility using the methods described above.
