      well you need to have an offset of no more than 35's really, for a decent fit. I have some Work Nezarts i'm wanting to offload for a good price, let me know; They're 17x7.5 et35 5x100 . . .

        What the ****, where do you get all your wheels Alex?

        They remind me of Brocks wheels, someone do it!

          Rotfl I still have 2 wheels to go! Its takes quite alot of time to do, your looking at like 1.5 hours each wheel no joke. It may only be like 1.5mm difference but trying to get it even and consistent throughout the centre bore is time consuming. Mainly shifting from file to sandpaper and the test fitting, its quicker once you get one done though...

          By all means buy a nice set of wheels in the right offsets and stud patterns if you have a chance but just be prepared to spend quite some time getting them right

                  I think that's just a random pic of the Work Nezarts. Alex has a set in 5x100.

                              reviving my old thread.

                              still on the hunt for wheels.

                              coupla questions:

                              1. are their any hub / brake swaps for the vrs to change PCD?
                              2. wont wheel spacers void your insurance???

                              i was thinking of getting spacers but am really put off by the legality and the price for proper bolt on style (they are almost the cost of the wheels i want to buy).

                              help?
