Bought a set of wheels and they dont fit !

chrisstdt · Apr 28, 2017

I bought a set of 15 inch wheels off ebay as they have a great set of goodyear tyes on

The stud pattern is the same as landrover but the hole for the hub is 10mm bigger (125mm and my landy rims are 115mm)

What are they off and could i do anything to make them fit ?

they look right, nuts generally centre the wheel on modulars not wheel centre

yup as gaspo has said

They do fit i tried them last night but there is a 5mm gap right round between the hub and wheel centre ad the hole is 10 mm too big

Are you saying this will be ok or can you but spiggots to make up the difference ?

I don't think you need to. Once the wheel nuts are tight you should be good to go

Yo don't need spigots, lots of aftermarket wheels are bigger than the hub.

It's not the same as a land Rover of course, I had a BMW E36 that had a set of later E39 alloys fitted but the wheels would never balance properly resulting in wheel tremor at 60mph onwards. Once the correct spigots were fitted the car was a revelation to drive at any speed.
