Title: ET 35 wheels ok for omega?
Post by: vauxfan2k on 16 October 2010, 12:20:41

Spotted a set of Momo arrows for sale locally, upon enquiring and getting pics, they are ET35, as they dont have tyres on I cant try them on the car to see if they sit ok, anyone know offhand if they will be ok?

I have 2x 10mm spacers if needed

thanks

Steve

These are 17in 7.5J   similar to the f/l elite wheels If I remember right

still not sure if they will suit the car or not, its real hard when there is no tyres on them.

Are we talking styling or how they work on the car, so to speak...?

Now that im sure they will physically fit, Im worried if they will suit the car, I had arrows on my cav gsi which looked very smart at the time, Im happy enough with the f/l elite wheels at the moment, but fancied arrows as a second set for when I fancy a change.

The bore is 65.1 on an Omega

The offset is fine for an Omega, my rear wheels are ET13 and I have no problems.

The problem that you may have is as they are old wheels they more then likely come off a 5 stud Cav or calibra and then the centre bore would be around 56. Which might not be a problem as they are aftermarket wheels as you would just replace the spigot with a 65.1 one.
Otherwise they will need the bore opening up.
