Hi all I have been looking for a set of rh topline alloys for a very long time but no joy. I have seen a 5x120 set in good condition on sale. How can I get these to fit on my car without changing whole suspension set up? Also what offset would these need to be? The wheels are 8.5x17 etc 10. All help appreciated

There are multi pattern hubs and spacer adapters made these days to fit other wheels. I have no links or recommendations as I won't use them, but some do. You will find them if you search
What offset you need will depend on what you do to the hubs. You need to get your tape out and measure what you have and put the measurements into something like willtheyfit.

There is a huge thread on one of the US forums with hundreds of pages of fitment advice, you will find what you need there and what you need/are prepared to do to the bodywork to make the wheels fit.
