    I'm not great with things like offsets, just doesnt seem to click with me. So i was wondering if someone could tell me if these will fit my Furio?

    Don't think they will, use the search button, I expect you'll find some information about saxo offsets

    And to pull off 13inch alloys you would have to be real low, or it would look pretty crap IMO.

    et -7

    saxos need an et of 12 to 18 ideally

    so you need around a 20mm spacer to put you at et 13

    also if they are ford fitment the centre bore will differ
    so you need a spacer that accounts for that too

    these are available as i have ford fitment ozs on my saxo

    have a search about ford fitment and i bet youll find a lot of the info your after

    Also check if they'll fit on standard discs, I'm not sure what size saxo ones are rated for

    Thanks for the links lads, helped a lot.

    Changed the wheels im looking at now and they have an offset of ET 0, so i'm guessing im going to need a 15mm spacer?

    No, they will sit 15mm further out than standard fitment wheels.

    quite the opposite actually.

    they are -7, which means they already sit too far out. adding spacers make the et number smaller.

    ie, wheel with the et30, add a 15mm spacer and you effectively have an et of 15

    take a wheel with an et of 10, and add a 15mm spacer, you have an et of -5.

    adding a 20mm spacer to them will leave at et-27, not et13
