need advice on these rims please

[maveric]

These are the rims that I'm hoping to get for my T25:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... TQ:GB:1123
I was just wondering if anyone could confirm that these would fit and what size spacers/adapters would be required?
Any help is welcome, thanks.

[lloydy]

maybe not the best option (although they do look nice). You'd need pcd adapters to get them to 5x112. normally they are 20mm thick, the wheels are ET25, so add on the 20mm adapter and you have a ET of 5. Not good. they may well go on, but whether it will drive well or leave you to be able to open the slider?..

Alright, thanks mate, I thought that would be the case but just wanted to get someone else's opinion, back to eBay it is..

Look at Benz wheels, they tend to be easier to fit

DO NOT BUY FROM TYREDEALER!!!!!!!!

Unbelievable ,after three days of confirmed order I got an email saying they had canceled the rims on order because they were incompatible ..
Now I ordered a wheel/tyre package and you think they would of stopped the tyres on order as well ...
Think again I have been told I either accept delivery or return them at a cost of 100gbp end of ...
So now I'm limited to what rims I can buy .....
frustrated is an understatement trust me ...
Anyway hay ho ,looking at some sweet old school Granada five spoke dishes at the mo so fingers crossed

Lesson learned

Claim your money back through EBay,

It should be covered by distance selling regulations!

Refuse delivery of the tyres and the carrier will return them with no charge to you

You can cancel the order up to 14 days after original purchase and you are entitled to a FULL refund

If they say anything different, stand your ground as they have not fulfilled your original order. Your contract was for a wheel/tyre package, they have failed to deliver on this.

You have all of the rights, not the seller

My wife manages online car parts shops, so she has to keep up with the latest regulations and is constantly having to accept goods back.
