Edit: answer found - I need a spigot ring :thumbup: will any do? Most on ebay seem to be made of rubber, would it not be better if it was metal?

Opinions? I plan to do part II of my vinyl experiment with these.. Thinking matt black :giggle:

they're called spigot rings.

needed! rather important.

Yes you'll require "spigot rings" to adjust the center bore correctly.

EDIT: Beaten too it :(

double post.

available from ebay/ rarerims/ rimstyle/ wheel whores etc.

57.1mm is the bore of the fabia IIRC, not sure what those wheels will be!

My Spigot rings that came with my Team Dynaics are plastic, i thought they would need to be metal too but they have done really well :thumbup:

Thanks for the reply guys, it did have some vibration going over 70 so I just cruised it back. Yep centre bore is indeed 57.1 :) was on the hunt for wheels for a longg while :giggle:

From a quick internet search, plastic version are ok for normal usage, but can melt if alloys get heated up (i.e. track days). :thumbup: Unless people disagree?

I'll probably go for metal just to be safe, since the price difference is only like ~£15 (ebay).

Always used plastic ones tbh never had any issues on any of my cars.

Pop down to your local car shop that sells alloys they may have some knocking about, or even Halfrauds. Ripspeed always used to have loads when I worked for them years back.

Ahh, ok, thanks.

Edit: Gave halfrads a ring and the local alloy wheel place, they said they don't keep any of that size in stock so I just ended up buying some from ebay. Need to put the spiders back on now.. :|

I found them, they're called EMR Products.. Interesting since they're 7.5J 16" :rofl:

Update - They're actually EMR Product wheels. aka Panther Custom Wheels. Got a rattle can equivalent of hammerite bbq spray (matt black) and it turned out like this:

Aha, found my thread.. Small update - had a small prong with an oap before xmas (she came into my lane), lightly scratched rear door and bit of the wheel so i decided to rub it down and make it shiny.

Anyone feel free to suggest..

Something luminous

Glow in the dark paint would be funny
