Styling Alloys

[jimmy]

Just got hold off some wolfrace octanes for my sei
one quick question i took the old 13" things off and theres a kind of pin pocking out off where the wheel is meant to go i guess its there to help u get the wheels on but i pokes out too far to fit the new ones on.
Can i take it off?
i know i will need spacers on the back anyway or maybe a little bit of arche mods but i just want them on scraping or no scraping!

Yes, take it off, stupid kwik-fit didn't when I change my steels to alloys.. the result was driving at motorway speed (70+) u will get white knukkle shakes erm, steering wheel will be virbating all over the place. as this metal peice won't sit flush against abarth alloy or spacers.

All it does is locate the rear drums and hold the front disc/spacer in place. It won't cause any probs if you take it off, especially if the flat headed bolt on the opposite side is left on.

It shouldn't cause any bother, it's just that when you take your wheels off the drum or disc might turn and you'd have to line everything up before putting the wheel back on. If you've got wheel nuts instead of bolts, the problem won't be as bad.
