8j Et0
So I may have just got hold of some 15" et0 8j rims, now there ford fitment so I know I already have to machine the centre bore to pug/cit but is there anything else ill need to do? Or can I just whip em on after I change the centre bore? Also there not euro so don't wont stretch is it possible without?
Thanks in advance!

depends what the bolt holes are, ford wheels of that offset are often Group 2/4 tally fitment and should have inserts and flat sleeve nuts, so you'd need a conversion stud kit from 1.25 to 1.5 and some ford sleeve wheel nuts
