I don't want to rain on anyone's parade here - but those wheels aren't the right size for a bay!

This has come up a couple of times on the forum before - your GSI wheels (lovely as they are) are 5x110 PCD whereas bay wheels should be 5x112 PCD, in short, these wheels could fail if fitted without adaptors - I know it's only 2mm difference, but they simply don't fit (even if you can get all the wheel nuts on)!

I don't want to be seen as the 'Safety Nutcase' of the forum - any more than I want to find out that someone has had an accident or trashed their van because the wrong size wheels were fitted, sorry

there 15" and have the holes resized to fit 5x112 the have been on my bay for 4 years and i've never had a problem or ever heard of any one else having a problem they also come with nuts with the right chamfer for vauxhall made by machine 7 (who wouldnt specially make them for that wheel with a bay thread if they were dangerous).

Damn, I'd have had them if I'd seen them. 2mm difference in PCD can easily be rectified. It's the centre spigot that's the most important thing with regard to safety.
