bah, don't want to sell them but I can't afford to put tyres on them, even though I have the tyres... These are unilug 5 stud, should fit pretty much anything from 4.5" to 4.75" or even maybe 5". So Datsun, Mopar, Ford, Chevy, Lexus, Toyota, Pontiac, BMW... The chrome on the rims is great but the centres show some wear and "patina". I was going to paint them red in the centres and attach a set of 3 eared spinners (they pop up on eBay for £30-£50 a set every now and then) However I am skintted. I'd take offers on £150 for them. I have a set of 4 part worn 215/70x14 white walls can go with them for another £75. Tell you what £200 the lot? I'm in Nottingham as are the wheels. I can ship them if you need.

Do you have any of the unilug washer things bud? (If not where can one get them from?) Also, what is the backspace and out of curiosity how would you mount the spinners?

Your opinion is invalid, I've seen your wife.

I don't understand the concept behind the unilug thing? IS it an adjustable adapter? Are these 4.5" (114.3)?

Can you measure the dia of the inner barrel? Not sure if they'll clear the drums.

Are these 4.5" (114.3)? the holes are oval (look closely) so they fit 5 stud wheels with two PCD's yank stuff in unilug is very common as one set of wheels can fit about half the classic yank tin ever made.. they locate on the centrebore and the special nuts (well not that special but specific to unilug weels) to clamp them down simples...

The Internet, like all tools, if used improperly, can make a complete bo**cks of even the simplest jobs...

righto, the centres are pretty much 12" diameter. Backspace looks like 3.25" to my tape measure. The correct nuts and washers can be obtained from Mister T's wheel nut emporiumThe spinners would bolt on using the wheel nuts. You'd need to take account of the spinner mounting plate thing when working out the length of the unilug nuts you will need (unilug nuts are sleeved and go through the wheel and if they are too long won't clamp the wheel to the hub,) Yes, these will go on a 4.5" PCD (114.3mm)

would there be a way of making these fit my B3 wagon?

I've seen Corvette wheels on a Golf and these would fit Chevy pattern so the adapters must be out there...

gah, damn you AK and youre shiny rimness, I keep coming back and looking at these even though I know I cant afford another set of wheels +1 I keep looking at them and picturing them on the Elite after Leigh drew this amazing sketch. The top pic is so right. I know your wheels are 14" and the ones in the pic must be somewhere around 18" but I still keep returning to this thread and thinking to myself, "What if?" It's a shame that I have literally NO funds because otherwise I'd probably buy them just to try out on the Lotus. I am hoping someone snaps them up soon......for your sake as well as mine. Such a cool set of wheels, good luck with the sale.

they might be coming your way....
Its getting painful here I don't mind telling you. I have 4 "good" job opportunities in play right now though. Mean time I have to sell stuff to live off.
Also finding a certain amount of charity from mates.
Sad to see these go (so quickly!) but if deal is done they are going to a good home.
