How to make them fit?

[guile]

yeah show us the wheels mate. just come across this good site, should def help you

The below site looks very similar but this is what i use when working out offsets, where there is a will there is a way!

sooo you have the wheels? whole different story.

jack one side of the car up,
remove front and back wheel,
add new wheels front and back,
add length of timber under each wheel,
let jack down,
release hand brake/push down on car (without dinting panels), engage hand brake,
go for walk around car.

that will tell you if they will fit or not

Question is do you want poke or not? I assume that's the look you're after that's why you bought wide wheels.. Do what Dylan said.. Trial fit the wheels and it'll give you a good indication as to what you need.

Yeah was looking for a bit of a wider look. The wheels arrived this morning, so plan is to test fit them like suggested and see how everything goes. Thanks for the advice.

The wheels are MRR GT7, I don't know how to add pics, but heres a link to my sale thread which has a pic there.

they dont look half bad. probably should have looked at the vmr range as they have similar "mesh" style rims that are not as aggressive fitment and just as cheap.
