If your going for spacers over 10mm make sure there hubcentric and use the right bolts, spacers are very dangerous if not used properly!

A Saxo has a centre bore of 65mm

A Ford wheel (standard) has a centre bore of 63.3mm

Even a big hammer wont make it work.

Std ford rims wont fit a std Pug hub no.

There are ways of making them fit, but to me its not worth the hassle unless the rims are special.
