I brought some 15" alloys with 195/50/R15 tyres and the back of the wheels rub against the suspension. The tyres are wider than the standard alloys so i dont know if there are spacers that can sort this issue. The car is a MK1 VTS.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks:y:

sounds like the wheels are ford fitement, so offset is slighty different to a saxo, approx 10mm - 20mm spacers are require if i remember rightly.

on here, but you cant access the for sale section yet. so try ebay.

failing that just type saxo wheel spacers into google.

beware tho, there are two types, flat spacers and hubcentric spacers, hubcentric are the ones you should get, better made and there safer.
