make sure that sit on the hubs right
ive seen loads of alloys go on cars and the wheel is to big for the hubs

if its only slightly to big for your hubs you can get plastic rings that sit on the hub :y

  looking at them and the ones i have , i think the gap between the tyre and arch would be to big and not look right ,

Bmw PCD (5*120)  is very different than the Omega (5*110) ..Wont fit.. unless you use a PCD convertor..

not a chance with out hub adapters and then they would stick out too much, just buy some replicas if you really like the style

I like that idea, is it a wheel cleaning brush or just something adapted, either way it would make life simpler. :y :y
Might have a little look on ebay later, see I can get a bargain ;) ;)
