Uncle_Ken the answer is i am sorry to say NO, the offset is all wrong, you can use hub adapters, or worse still spacers. I believe hub adapters are legal in NSW, but check the insurance company will be happy as well.

Adapters will be required but something to consider down the track is the larger range of wheels your son can pick and choose from is he converts to AU offset...

The wheels are about 85% in very good nic.
I was hoping he could get some free rubber for no cost. Just want the my 19 Yr old to have a set of newer tyres. The mags on his fairmont aren't in great nic, they look only so so. What cost would I be looking at for: Hub adapters, or spacers. |
