    Re: wheel fit.

    Adapters are Mickey Mouse! They alter offset, which can alter steering feel and/or place excess load on the wheel bearings and place additional bending loads on the studs/bolts. Buy a wheel properly engineered for the car or stick with the Rally wheels.

    The proper dimensions are 15" x 8" x -0.50" offset.

      Re: wheel fit.

      Vince,

      Duke gives you good advice. I would just like to add that spacers are used from the factory by some mfgs. on some models ( such as certain Porsche models ) but the program is designed to work that way. By adding a spacer of a 1/2 to 3/4 inch you are extending the forces beyond what the mfg. designed the hub system. I remember hearing of people who lost a wheel while driving the car because of this. Very dangerous.
