    You can get around that by using custom made adapter plates, however these can make a bargain set of wheels silly money, think they are around £80 for a set if not more.

    They are the ones, you do however have to match to your current pcd and required pcd and decide on a thickness as it could cause the wheels to poke out a fair bit.

    I've been on wheelbase a few times, put my car spec in.. A lot of the pictures are 5 stud wheels it just confused me. But yeah I do like that wheel a lot! Think it would look well on a black car? I'm a bit unsure about the red

    I think most of the time they're just stock photos... If you're that unsure contact them and ask :D

    Some are 5 stud photo's but are done in 4 stud, some are a multi-fit so have holes all the way round the centre.
