Hi all. Anyone know where I can find a set of hubcentric spacers that'll fit my Pug alloys to my Ford Crappy hubs? The ones on the car aren't hubcentric, so things are a little bit dodgy... Looked in all the usual places, but I can only find Ford or Pug-sized ones, not one to adapt to the other.
Cheers

isn't the capri pretty close to pug offset being rear drive not the deeper fwd ford offsets?

It ain't the offset that's the issue, it's the centre bore. Ford centres are 63.4mm, Pugs are 65.1mm, and it's that centre ring that locates the wheel... So I have some slop! Also, I reckon these wheels would look loads better about 20mm further out.

I'm not the most educated when it comes to wheels but my old caddy had some odd wheels on it. I just got spigot rings made up in the appropriate size. Edit. Like these. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261215470956

ha, the perfect items.
if you really need to then just a straight pug to pug spacer will work with those inside.

Yes then! Cheers BT, that's sorted! Photos will follow, along with properly centred wheels! I suppose I'll find out how much of the wobble is from the wheels being loose on the hubs, and how much is due to the wheels being some of the worst the tyre guy had ever tried to balance... He said that they'd balanced up eventually, he just didn't understand how!
