alloy wheel fitting help

[hafizur95]

Hello all.
Ok so i borrowed an allloy off a seller to see if they fit my civic mb2. The car is a 4 stud and the alloy is too.

So took it to the garage the guy told me they fit but will need spacers, go get some spacers then come back.

Now, i dont know anything about alloy wheels on cars, my first time putn aftermarket alloys on.

Where can i get spacers for my car? I tried halfords, they put me on hold for like forever so i hang up. Was holding for 25 mins

What is the PCD of the car and the wheel? What about the offset? How big a spacer do you need?

Get the right wheels. Pattern, offset & centre.

Find out what the offset of the wheels are, usually printed on the mounting face on the rear of the wheel (will say ET then a number) and go from there. It may need a 5mm slip on or a larger one. Depending on clearance. Aftermarket suspension (coilovers/shocks can change the clearance needed)

Your best bet would be an owners club to see if anyone has had the same issue and find out what size spaces they used.

With spacers 10-15mm would generally be the most you would want to go with slip on spacers then hub centric for bigger sizes.
