Incase you don't know how its measured, its taken centre of one wheel stud, to the centre of one opposite (not next to it). Should be bang on 100mm

Just note, this only really works on 4 stud or 6 stud vehicles, don't go trying it on a 5-er. Edit: I suppose I should elaborate - The number after the stud amount is the radius of the stud's distance away from the centre of the hub, multiplied by two (to give diameter).

Get some proper pics up in here!

4 studs is all you need

[byza213]

thanks guys will take some pics this weekend busy week. dont expect to much haha

should i keep it bone stock?

coz i was thinking some 15s with a nice offset later on before summer maybe but dont want to ruin her ..?

[Bling]

Do what you want with it man. It's a good reliable car, but its not a collectable or anything, so I wouldn't be too worried about ruining it. Nothing wrong with a set of rims etc to make it look a bit nicer etc Just don't sack it out on chromes, add an annoyingly loud exhaust and you'll be fine haha

my 2c

[byza213]

haha yea man trust me im not into ruining cars lol i got good taste
