Starfish alloys will be back on eBay soon.... :roll:
Ginger,
Did you ever get these wheel fitted to your car properly & if so can you post up some pic's with the wheel spacer details :)
Cheers Paul.

Hi mate, not yet. The spacers I bought were perfect for the car but to big bore for the wheel centre to go over.. :roll:

I will have to look at some flush spacers and see what happens, watch this space :cheesy:

Hi Alberto, I have a set of 20mm with longer bolts too, but the spacer won't fit 'inside' the hole in the rim as the spacer rim is too big - I might just hacksaw them off and just use them.

Did you get your 18's sorted or are you keeping your steelies... :)
