wheels proplem

[Josh_24]

iv got some 205 wheels on my car
went to get them balanced they said they did it but the wheels were not sitting on the hub properly
any ideas?

[WelshyUK]

Probably requires some spacers!

[Josh_24]

ive got some but if i put them on then it will look too wide...
was thinking about longer wheel nuts?

[WelshyUK]

If you've got 25mm spacers that would be fine, longer wheel nuts won't really help as the problem is gonna be more with the wheel sitting flush on the hub!

Clean the hubs & rear of wheels?

[Josh_24]

spent a good 2 hours cleaning the back of the wheels
can anyone tell me if i was right in thinking they would be a straight fit

[James205rallye]

What exactly do they mean when they say they are not sitting on the hubs correctly?? Sounds a bit fishy to me.

205 wheels are a straight fit for vt models other saxo models with drum brakes will need a 3mm spacer at the back.


balancing is done off the car aswell i thought, tracking is done on the car
