	Hi all I've got 15x7 ATS Cups on my 360, I have fitted them without spigot rings. I was wondering if the studs would be enough to centralise the wheel or will I need spigot rings? I know the 360 has 52.1mm centre bore but my vernier is too big to measure the ATS Cups centre so I guess it is 57.1mm as they fitted my old 1.3 1985 mk2 golf absolutely fine and most websites online list them as 57.1mm centre bore.

	Are your wheel nuts tapered? They may hold but for the sake of a few ££ I'd buy spigot rings.

While spigot rings are a good idea for whee centring they are not essential for vehicles with taper or ball seat fasteners, provided you tighten the wheels carefully to avoid them settling off centre. I haven’t bothered on my 121 because taper bolts.

	I have used them on a trackday v360 for years without rings. No issues. The studs are not the strongest though, one broke, so apply proper torque and no more.

	The tapered nuts will be fine. Alot of vehicles don't have any spigot.
