The nut seat alone centers the wheel, so the right 60° small-diameter nut matters even more than on a Beetle. Weight matters too. EMPI publishes no load rating, so tire choice carries the load: buy Load Range C\/D and run the pressure the tire maker specifies for your weight. You may have seen 5x112-to-5x205 adapters. They only clear at the rear because they hit the front calipers, so they are not a full-set answer.
