coullstar 0 Posted February 14, 2009 Any photos? The wheel info is usually stamped on the back for BBS. If they wont even go on the hub it sounds like they may have been for a car with a smaller centre bore. Try and measure the size of the hole in the wheels rear. VW's need 57.1mm.

coullstar 0 Posted February 14, 2009 Is this what there like? http://www.zgapa.pl/zgapedia/data_pictu ... alibra.jpg Measure the centre bore first before doing anything though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh Waddi 0 Posted February 15, 2009 yep there the ones but white. damn take it there vauxhal then anyone interested or shall i take them back?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh Waddi 0 Posted February 16, 2009 Still on the same subject, can these be adapted to fit the C or is it a no go? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted February 16, 2009 If the PCD is correct you may just need to get the centre bore machined out a little, should be fine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BILLCOR 1 Posted February 16, 2009 Still on the same subject, can these be adapted to fit the C or is it a no go? If they are of a calibra, the centre bore will be 56.6, you should be able to get it bored out, I take it they are 4x100, whats the ET? EDIT: :lol: What he said Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh Waddi 0 Posted February 16, 2009 yeah there 4x100 i think (is this the stud thing?) the align correctly with the holes but just dont fit the hub. i think the ET was 42?? How much would it cost to bore these out? Just dont wanna get rid of them!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BILLCOR 1 Posted February 16, 2009 ET may be a bit high, you may need spacers, shouldn't be that much to get them machined, just phone round some engineers in your area Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh Waddi 0 Posted February 17, 2009 Managed to take them back, wot is it with scrap merchants? it took me 2 hrs of negotiating, 1 complaint and 1 threat of the citizens advise bearau before i got my money back on these things. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
