Borbet A wheels.... will they fit

Post by Gary.pb »

I've been offered a set of borbet A alloys for my van for a reasonable price. The wheel size are as follows 17inch, 5x112 pattern. 4x7,5J offset 30. Am I right in thinking these will fit ok? I've already got longer rear studs. Regards, Gary

I did have a read prior to posting. Somebody has fitted these but they don't state the offset. I'm pretty sure an offset of 30 Is fine but just wanted to check before shelling out on buying them.

Also can somebody confirm that the center caps will fit past the dust caps ?

There are two kinds of borbet centre caps. Flat ones will not clear the dust caps. But the other most common ones will clear the dust caps.
