ALLOYS DONT FIT

[dani951]

Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me. So I bought some 20 inch wheels however I made a stupid mistake by not measuring how far the bolt threads are away from each other and the wheels I bought don’t fit onto the car as the holes won’t align I was wondering if there is a way around it to make them fit ?

Plan A: Since you haven't been able to put the wheels on the car (and hopefully haven't done any damage while trying) maybe you can return the wheels to the seller.

Plan B: Whoever sold you the wheels should have information on the "bolt circle" diameter and "offset". You should probably get that info so you can use it in your description when you put those wheels up for sale.

Yeah true however what about pcd adapters ?

Checking fitment before ordering is kind of important

Dude. You skipped literally one of the most important parts of buying aftermarket wheels.

Your options are try to return or sell them. Don't use adapters - adds another point of failure and you can't get those any smaller than an inch anyway, so your wheels won't fit.

Sell them get a correct set of wheels. Don’t do adapters especially if you’re going to make any real power or going to track it.

If he's buying 20-inch aftermarket rims that don't fit (no offense OP, honest mistake, I understand), there is zero chance he's tracking this car.

You technically can get a set of adapters to change the bolt pattern from the car to the wheel. But I wouldn't bother, you should get proper fitting wheels.

Yeah wasn’t gonna take it on track also I know pretty stupid I should I have checked I just assumed they’d fit as I’ve seen them on another mustang

As others have stated, always check back spacing which is equally as important as bolt pattern.

I mean if you want to risk totally fucking up your suspension.... sure. You do that. Treat it like some 90's Honda Civic you're going to stance around for 1-2yrs then resell to some kid to deal with the suspension wear before you have to....

Tuff lesson.

I feel like curiosity now dictates me to ask what wheel you purchased.
