Default fao...anyone with rs 7 spokes fitted to a series 2

do they fit straight on with regards to the bolts/nuts or do you have to change anything on the hub , i.e do you use the standard escort bolts??

thanks

p.s the 17" ones

went sriaght on mine but i did have to space out the rears to clear my coil-overs ( will be fine with normal arrangement) you will more than likely have to get the arches rolled but try them on first you may be lucky

I have them on mine, (diamond cut ones) and had to use the collets that came with the wheel nuts cut them off and use on my standard bolts otherwise they are too small and almost pull through the wheel! You will see what I mean when you go to fit them Apart from that, no probs at all, if the car is low then u will need to rol the arches really, mine scrubs a bit here and there. (providing they are 17's we are talking about? u haven't mentioned?)

Here are mine and Adam

Both look wicked, although mine are a little different as I've got the inserts pained black!

I've used gear bolts in mine, fit a treat,,,used to have the other ones, but fitted shodderly, so gear bolts are the way to go!!

Adam,,,know what ya mean huni about em pulling through
Go for gearbolts,,,,jobby done!!!
