wobbly corrective bolts. SAFE/UNSAFE?

[mcjacko1987]

im realy after some alloys for my car but low on money at the moment.my mate has given me some vauxhall alloys with new tyres wich he said i could swap for some fiat alloys.but i dont seem to have any interests for them on here.
so the only other option i got is to use the vauxhall 1s on my car.wich do look good when i put them next to my car.i think they are 100pcd and as you all know punto mk2s are 98pcd. i found these on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=290296351911
They are wobbly nuts and im wondering if these realy are safe to use?are they worth there money?and would they chew away easy?or mess up tracking etc. any info you guys have on these would be great.
here are 2 pics of them

They'd be perfectly safe, but the most important thing is the centre bore as that's what keeps the wheel central on the hub. FIAT centre bore is 58.1mm, no idea what vaux is so you'd need to find out.

ok cheers mate.u have any idea how much itd cost all 2geva 4 the full lot?

I got my wobblies from e-bay for about £30, as for the centre bore - as long as the Vaux one is bigger than 58.1mm you can use spigot rings (fairly cheap) to get it right, if it's smaller (for example, VW have a 57.1mm centre bore) then you'll need hub adaptors (expensive) or for the centre to be machined out (probably expensive).

ok mate thanks a lot

Vaux's are typically 56.6mm bore.

Re-bore shouldn't be more than £5 a wheel.

Cheers for that richie, I'll add that to my memory banks

 

[mcjacko1987]

so its aprox gonna cost me £50 to get them wheels on?

Minimum, I would check the offset too as vauxhalls often run high offset meaning you need to space the wheels out when fitting them to Fiats.

 

[mcjacko1987]

so in general id be better off just getting some cheep fiat alloy then.

 

[Eklipze3k]

Pretty much yeah, it depends how much you're looking to spend and how individual you want to be

 

[mcjacko1987]
