The stock 14" wheels are the same ones, 2wd or Syncro.


The nuts and bolts that hold alloys on are different than the ones for
steel. Also Syncros use only nuts front and rear while 2wd has bolts up
front and nuts in the rear. This matters most when swapping wheel types
between 2wd and Syncro since you need to swap hardware along with the
wheels but the front hardware requirements are different.
