Hi all,

Just a quick question. I'm looking at buying these rims:

I'm assuming they will fit onto the tyres I've got on my factory hubcaps?

Thanks,

the best way to tell is to find out what size tyres are on the wheels you are buying, and compare them to the tyres you have on now. Chances are they won't be a straight swap, I would hazard a guess to say you have 15" wheels on the car now and the wheels you are buying are 16". You will probably need 215/55 R16 tyres for your new wheels. Again, the only way to be sure is to find out what tyres are/were on the rims you are interested in.

If you haven't committed to the purchase yet, you will probably need to allow for new tyres in the decision process

+1. This will be your most reliable way to find out.

If they're 15's your running now, they won't fit at all.

off topic, but your car is really high in the rear end? do you have heavy duty springs? just curious.

No mate, not that I'm aware of.
