Apologies for being such a noob. I bought some wheels recently and have had constant problems trying to get them to fit properly. They were extremeoffsetwheels steelies in 16x8

I'm thinking about getting some Borbet type A's or junk eighty six wheels. I have some 215/40/16 tyres and I'm just wondering if anyone knows that these wheels will fit the car 100% without problems. If I get the borbets they will be 7.5j, the other ones are 8.

as mart says don't apologise, we all have to start somewhere.

if you know the specs of the wheels then have a look here

that should be able to help.
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

sweet cheers for the help lads. Think I'm getting an idea of what wheels fit and which don't.
