What years of 850 used 4 lug bolt rims? Topic is solved

I know 1992 (Europe) and 1993 in Canada (possibly the US) used 4 bolt wheels. I am not sure if 1994 did as well or if the change happened in 1994 to go to 5 bolt wheels. Anyone know?

We are usually one year behind EU in improvements, except in soccer, health care, and spray can cheese.

Okay, spray can cheese.

I recall trying to find a winter set of alloys for our 93 about 15 years ago. Really hard to find a set as 4 bolt rims were hard to find. If I hadn't just replaced the rear wheel bearing/hubs, I would have retro-fitted 5 lug hubs all around to make wheel swapping much easier!

I wasn't sure about 94 if it was the whole year or like Misha says for the 95 MY update when they changed the wheels.

Appreciate the input guys!

My ‘94 is 5-lug.

Yours(U.S) market '94 had allready been facelifted but for late '94.
Ours(E.U) in '95...but it could vary for some markets...like passenger side airbag,for example.
