thanks for the reply , is that because the centre bore of the wheels is too small or is that because the wheels are bigger than 6j. ??

any pics of a saxo on them , just ive never seen on , do they look gash is that one of the reasons . ?? cheers mate

its because saxo offset is around et15, ford offset is usually around et35-40 so need 20mm spacers and the centre bore of citreon and ford is different

i'm selling some mondeo alloys that look alot better than them

oh rite , i get you . so basically even if i got the centre bore of the wheels machined out , the wheels would sit too far in the arch and scrub on the inner arch , wich wheels do you have for sale . ? ?

correct, but they wouldn't have the chance to scrub, the wheel just wouldn't spin at all

i have some 16'' mondeo st24 turbines recently refurbed and painted rover gun metal grey

oh rite i see . okay well thanks anyway mate . if i was to get the wheel adaptors , they will come with adaptors and wheel nuts , i would bolt the adaptor to the hub and then bolt the wheels to the adaptor, have there ever been any known problems or anythng to go wrong with adaptors . ??

they are not adaptors, they are hubcentric spacers
