Hmmm... Tamago brings up a critical point. I seem to recall the Spectra has 4 x 114.3 bolt pattern, but perhaps the 2004 has 4 x100. Anyway, check it out to be sure.
EDIT: Search indicates 2004 Spectra bolt pattern is 114.3

FYI - many people are finding this info quickly by going to a website like tirerack.com and entering the vehicle info, then searching for custom wheels. It will tell you what size/pattern is appropriate.

Here's a site with a chart of Kia models. It looks like just the Optima used 4x114.3. The rest of the 4 bolt ones are all 4x100.

thanks for the input everyone. i went by this sites info.http://www.hubcaphaven.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=HC&Product_Code=3912&Category_Code=855 and the wheel says 4x100. at tirerack it says the 2004 spectra models gs ,gsx, ls, and lx use 4x100 EXCEPT the ex model that tirerack says 4x114. DAMN this is more complicated than i thought. if the guy would return my call it would be so easy.
thanks again everyone.
If you cross reference car-part.com, the alloys for the 2004 are the same for 2005 and 2006. In those years the bolt pattern is 144.3. Kia alloys from 02/03 were 4x100 but they're 14"
