do u mean you need adapters so the wheels fit  your hubs, or actual spigot rings to centre the wheels on the hub?

I do actually need spigot rings to make sure the wheels are centralised on the hubs. The centre bore on the alloys has been drilled to be a specific fit and it slightly larger than the 57mm on a VW.(God knows what they where fitted to before ?!?!)

The wheels are the right PCD but I get some vibration at motorway speeds so wanna make sure they are spot on - if this is possble ofcourse !!!

thats tricky then, only thing i can suggest is you measure the centre bore of the alloy then go to a large alloys retailer and find an alloy that has the same centre bore then use the spigot rings for those alloys

I had the same problem. Ive got a Mk II with OZ alloys from a Clio.
The centre bore of the wheels is 60mm. After trying about a zillion different places I got some spigot rings from R-Tec in Hatfield.

Gooner you star !!!

I was just about to give up and stick the wheels on eBay too, gave them a call and they were very helpful - gonna take a drive up there tomorrow and they'll sort me out.

Thanks again !! ;)
