    Default New Wheels Problem

    I bought a set of 18in wheels today that where fitted to an Astra H, but when trying them on don't seem to fit. I have measured the centre bore to be 75mm so looks like I will need spigot rings and the vectra wheel studs don't seem to fit either but maybe I just need a deep 17mm socket instead of the 17/19mm one. It looked like the wheel holes didn't line up but maybe that was to do with no spigot rings.

    What wheels are they as you might need 'tunner' bolts rather than normal bolts.

    Ask the person you got them from.

    Also called wobble bolts. Better option is to get some PCD adaptors though.

    Sorry not correct.

    Tunner bolts are narrow bolts that you use a special tool to remove like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20-x-Tuner...item2a1ff83759

    I shall eat my own words! Never heard of them before, just presumed that was what you meant.

    I stand corrected!

    Default

    Try the manufacturers or sellers website for centre bore sizes?
