have a set off ford rs2000 si alloys sitting in my garage that I would of put on but refurb'd the vtr wheels...anyway, you will need around 20mm wheels spacers to correct the offset. Best to use hubcentric spacers, but they aint cheap.
You also need upgraded wheel bolts obviously to accomodate the wheel spacers...I have a set of brand new extended wheel bolts suitable for 20mm wheel spacers somewhere...

they have sold now.


ford wheels usally have a different size centre bore aswell so you wont just need spacers you will need adaptors (which will be spacers aswell).

Saxo centre bore is 65.1
ford usally 63.3 or 63.4 or 63.5 depends where you look tbh

Or use centre rings/spiggot rings to adapt CB size
