Default looking for cheap option for winter wheels

I've got an 07 limited turbo. I am looking to put cheap steel wheels and snow tires for the winter. What factory wheels will fit either, neon or pt.? I don' have a lot of free time to go salvage yard hopping so your input would be helpfull

If you are in a larger city "craigslist.org" is an excellent place to find dirt cheap tires/wheels. In Minneapolis there are cheap snow tires posted every single day. I'm selling a set myself for $50 (wheels with used tires)! I bought them last year for only $20 bucks. Used them and will sell them for a profit.

They are 5 x 114 so they don't fit the PT, they are from my other car.

make sure to meet during the day in a public location if possible.

5x100 bolt pattern is what you want to look for. they are VERY POPULAR and easy to find. Ask anyone with some knowledge of tires to see if they tire size will work for you. Tire sizes come in three numbers EXAMPLE: 205/55/16 The 205 is the width, the 55 is the hight of the TIRE, and the 16 is the fit of the RIM. So if you have 45 tall tires and 17 inch rims, 55 tall tires and 16 inch rims work well for you. Also 65 tall tires and 15 inch rims would work.

5x100, 12x1.50 OEM Thread, 3/4" OEM Hex, 57.1mm Hub, +50 Offset.

I believe all cruisers have the same size, any 5x100 Chrysler/dodge/etc lug wheel should most definetly fit, there are tons of wheels that will fit, just about any 5x100 lug rim you find will fit your PT.
