Anonymous Unregistered A	Well ive been to an alloy wheel specialist today who said these wheels would not go on the car safely, and refused to fit them with spacers and wobbly bolts. Ive found somewhere I can get spacers made specially for £80, only problem is I dont know what size spacer I need to make the darn wheels fit Im guessing the offset on the wheels is 35, as ive been on the Kahn website and most 17's are 35. Any Ideas folks? Cheers, Fabz

That must be a one off, or its just me being lucky as i run on wobbly bolts & spacers in excess of 100mph & had no problems.
