5x114.3 have more wheel options than 5x100. Yes, sells of 86/BRZ brought more wheel options in 5x100, but compared to 5x114.3 we're far from the design and especially offset options. Example, I wanted Advan TC-4 17x9+35, but sadly they only make that in 5x114.3. Closest is 17x8+45 for 5x100. This goes not only for Advan wheels, but several other brands.

And to answer the OP, just look for the specs of the wheels more than searching for the car. At least that's easier to search imo.
I had considered the strength aspect, but that has seemed to only been an issue for those of us that regularly track our cars. I have been through 5 front hubs myself.

I knew that there where more wheel sizes available but given the OP didn't even know what cars use that pattern it made me question his motives.
