winter rims

I'm trying to find a cheap set of steel rims, so i can throw them on my HHR come winter. Keep my stock shiney ones for the nice days.

I have an 06 2LT with the stock 17s.

When I'm looking around the boneyards, what other vehicles should I look for to make sure the rims will fit? I know next to nothing about rims and tires.

Thanks guys

Anything with a 5x110 bolt pattern will work,providing the offset is correct.

Anyone know the offset?

I know next to nothing about tires and wheels....

also, are all weather/all season tires alright for wisconsin winters, or would you suggest winter tires... I plan to swap these out once the snow hits... gets cold out.

Thanks guys

If you're just going to switch back to your summer tires, I suggest getting true winter tires for these rims. All weather's usually do nothing for me in the snow.

I've got a set of steel wheels I just took off my HHR, but for what the shipping would cost from California you could get a set locally.

with the prices I've seen for steel wheels from every retailer around here, I might as well spring a few extra bucks for rims that look better than the stock ones.
