   normally ford offset is higher around 38et so normally need 20mm spacers. Then the centre bores are to small so need machining or run adaptors which is what i do.

   I was told the stud patten would fit fine but all I need is some normal 20mm for clearance? Is this true?
   
   No hubcentric spaces
   
   No drilling
   
   Thanks

   No drilling as there the right stud pattern, yes. Yes you need hubcentric spacers as universal one are generally dangerous at that width. At the least they will cause wheel wobble at high speeds.
   If your running 20mm hubcentric spacers you will need longer wheel bolts. Ideally u can buy better quality hubcentric spacers. Where they have 8 holes instead of 4, the spacers/adaptors bolt to the hub then the wheel to that.
   
   Read over what I wrote before. The centre bore (the hole in between the bolt holes) of a
   Saxo is something like 65.5mm & fords 59.3mm so the bore needs machining wider. Or alternatively u can buy 20mm ford to cit adaptors that have the smaller bore negating the need to enlarge the bore. The last option is what I do when using ford wheels

    i have a set of those in my shed.
    
    i bought them from germany a few years back for about £40.
    
    however there vw fitment; 4 x 100. i plan on rocking them on one of my mk2 golfs this year.
    
    back to the point, i can never find any info on whey king alloys when i do a search on the net. you got any good links????

    Looks like a bargain if the tyres are decent, even if there not it's still a good price

    Quite nice rims, dish looks quite deep aswell. as for the guy who paid £40 for a set must have got a right bargain. Post pics if you get them on the saxo, thinking about the euro look myself atm

    £300 sounds like a good price especially with tyres.
    
    my ones are corroded and have light curbing, ive given the lips a quick polish to make them look a bit better and that will do for me. i dont need major polished ones either cuz ive got some OZ turbo split rims too
    
    if i wanted to sell mine i would sell them for alot more than what i paid for them, with p+p they owe more than £40 anyway.
