hello
would these cheap allloys fit our 14' Syncro, would we need spacers? bored out holes? longer nuts?

i guess my biggest concern is the offset!


Size: 5.5 x 15
PCD: 5-112
Offset: ET20
Fitment: VW Bay Window 1968-1979, VW Bus T25 1980-1991

Anna here - Leo's other half. Just have to tell you why he's panicking about the wheels! :rofl
He bought them by accident the other night while we were staying over at my mum's - he was using his phone as a torch to put the baby to bed and clicked 'buy'!!!! He'd been about to show them to me, and went pale! Love it! He REALLY hopes they will do the job now......
