Featured Replies

Alright guys

I just brought these bbs wheels for my car.

They will not be a straight fit as there from a bmw

There 17 inch 5x120 8j and think there et 20?

Just want some advice how what I will need to make them fit?

Thanks people :)

You'll need adapters

Thanks for that

I looked at them but my only concern is with the adapters they will give 20mm spacing so this will make my et 0 so does that mean I will not be able to use them as they will run and do all sorts of problems just abit confused with et side of things

Cheers

Essentiall yes, they will be ET0. But I'm not sure how wide the 9n arches are, they may accomodate them just fine.

Alternatively you could get the hubs re-drilled/tapped at an engineers place. You'd have to take them off the car before mind and the brake discs would also need to be done (at least clearance holes drilled in). This will probably be what I do if I fit my revolutions. The ET is pretty high on those and I think adapters would push them out of the arches. Plus I've not seen adapters for this PCD (though likely available) and they tend to cost a fortune. I can get hubs drilled for free mind.

Why do you mean get the brake discs done?

Because the wheel bolts bolt through the disc, into the hubs

Oh yea lol

What about filling and redrilling the wheels?

g23 engineering will make custom adaptors for you the smallest they will do is 18mm but they said to me they were testing 15mm reasonable price aswell think they are 120 for the pair

type into facebook g23 engineering if you dont already have them, really sound guys customer service is second to none

I just checked on willtheyfit.com and compared it to what I'm running, they're probably going to stick out a good inch or so. That's not to say you can't make them fit by stretching tyres, rolling and pulling arches or with camber but I don't know what amount of extra clearance you'll gain from that because its something I know next to nothing about
