Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster!

I just wanted to double check in case im being too simple about this.

I have a 97 Astina 1.8 with some ugly ass aftermarket rims on them at the moment from previous owner.

From what I have read I would be able to get ANY 17 inch x 7 inch, 4 stud 100mm rim and it would fit nicely on my car? Or is it all about the amount of offset on the rims so they will actually fit?

Then need to make sure i get tires with a low enough profile to ensure the total wheel size is the same and im all good to go?
