Seriously dude, please don't buy these they look dodgy as hell, h&r or adaptec will sort you out for not much more, my problem with these is they are trying to do too much with the 3 pcd's and there is no locating ring....

Wheel adapters is not the place to save money, it's not nice when a wheel comes off.....

Try venom motorsport or h&r direct online, adapters are always about £150 an axle tho
