Serial Kisser Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 ryt, I've got a set of corsa c sxi alloy wheels! was wondering if any one could tel me if i would have any problems with fitting them on??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 They are the same PCD so they will fit BUT depending on the offset you may need spacers, best bet is to try them and go from there ;)What wheels are they? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bourkey Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Corsa C Wheels. If you sold them you would get quite a bit for them and get some better wheels. ;) Here are some that look like they will fetch quite a bit of moneyhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Geniune-Vauxhall-cor...1QQcmdZViewItemAs Sparky said the PCD is the same but the offset and centre bore is different so you would need spacers and spigots for them to fit right on a Starlet but im not 100% sure if you can put spigots in factory made wheels for specific cars.Personally id sell them and get better wheels.

Sparky Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Ahh right so they are the actual sxi wheels? I thought they was aftermarket wheels off an sxi or something.In that case get rid of them....in fact why buy them in the first place??? ;) Yes forgot to mention about the centre bore may be different so spigots will be needed unless the centre bore is smaller on the starlet in which case you will be fucked unless you grind the inside of the wheels away which i dont recommend ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Do the wheel up and when its still off the ground wobble the wheel a bit to see if the centre bore fits OK, if there is movement you will need spigot rings.Then see how close the wheel is to the suspension strut and drop it on the floor to see if the wheels needs to be pushed out into teh arch more Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I wouldn't trust them if the centre bore is off personally -- you might not feel any play but when you're doing 60mph the vibrations will multiply and you'll end up sheering off some studs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
