   Depends what fitment the wheels are and what tyres are fitted!

   As said, it depends on the tyre sizes and wheel fitment, though short answer is yes, they can be fitted,
   
   i've got a mate who used to run them

   Nice wheels them
   
   As said, we need measurements. I doubt they will be a straight fit, you might need spacers or adaptors.

    They're ET11, 4x108 and will fit on, although you wont be able to fit any bigger brakes under them.
    
    10mm spacers are needed for 266mm brakes, not tried and of my set of 6 over any 283's yet though.

    Hahaha, good luck is all i can say! It took me about 3 years to find two centre caps!
    
    Fondmetal didnt even know the wheels, luckily i found a guy on pistonheads selling a set of four wheels but with only two centre caps. Bought the caps off him.
