i want to put alloys on my saxo.. its a 1998 saxo, and has only 3 wheel nuts.

is there any way i can make it so 4 nut alloys will fit, or does someone know where i can get sum half decent 3 nut alloys from.

thanks alot...

Speedlines make 3stud wheels look tidy but a very limited range

You could change the rear beam and front hubs to convert from 3stud to 4stud

vtr/vts hub and axle conversion

you will also get discs at the back as well as 4 stud

ill take a look thanks.. yer i wish i had a vtr or vts.. but this is my first year driving and after my job, insurance is my most hated thing ever.

Would i be best getting the rear beam and front hubs changed.. or just buying 3 stud alloys.. or does it even really matter?

you get a better choice of alloys in 4 stud

but will cost more due to the conversion

I got my 3 stud raceline RLS wheels from here, the guy is real helpful & quick too:- TYRESAVE (http://www.tyresave.co.uk/alloy3st.html)

Its easier and cheaper to just stick a set of 3 stud wheels on. your one of the unfortunate ones...join the crew

i thought those alloys looked expensive.. £439 with tyres.. you can get wolfrace wiv tyres for that?

Where can i buy the conversion stuff from btw?

saxmaniac could i see a pick of your alloys on your car? i really want to make the right decision.
