Can anyone tellme if 17 inch aftermarket BA rims will suit my magna. Will i have to do anything special for them to fit correctlyo are they a straight fit. Offset apparently is 36 mm. Thanks

Thanks Rhino. Also what are "loaters".Anyone else have any experience with this. With this offset, i am ppresuming the wheels will sit out further towards the guards.

Dunno why you'd be running 5mm spacers on the front with AU/BA offset rims.

sorry man wheel locaters, not spacers.

So am i right in thinking that locators fit on the centre hub so the wheel fits snuggly on the hub. If so how much are they and where will i get them

They will fit - I have my old 17 off my AU (roh furys) on the magna 17 X 8 with a 38 off set
I put my old BA GT wheels on the Magna as well before I sold the wheels 18 X 8 with the different offsets 38 front and 32 rear it filled the guards out nicely - it looked HORN

Here it is with the Fury's on it

Thanks BF. Did you have to use locators

Thanks BF. Did you have to use locators
Nope just straight on

Thanks BF. Much appreciated.:happy::happy::happy:

The centre bore CB is the same 67.1 as well as the PCD 5 X 114.5 on the Magna and the AU- FG Falcons as well as the Camrys
You just have to be careful of the off set - the lower the off set means it will stick out further past the guards IE a 38 off set will sit closer to the strut than a 32 off set

Falcon CB isn't 67.1, rather 70.1 or 70.6 isn't it?

My bad you are correct it is 70.1 - I must of had a blonde moment - the 4 stud wheels have the CB of 67.1

So does that mean i will need locators or not?

My bad you are correct it is 70.1 - I must of had a blonde moment - the 4 stud wheels have the CB of 67.1S'all good, just that my Enkeis are ex-BA and it would've been really useful if the 70.1mm locating ring HADN'T been glued in... :nuts: quite frustrating

So does that mean i will need locators or not?

No you will not need them

No you will not need them

are you on crack? :nuts:

if the falcon centre bore is 70.1mm and the magna centre bore is 67.1mm there will be a 1.5mm gap all the way around the centre bore of a magna with falcon rims on it (if it's perfectly centred, which it won't be). at worst there'll be a 3mm gap on one side, and the wheel studs will be bearing the weight of the car.

you need locating rings.
