Raz s Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Hi, I have just done mb6 brake upgrade on my mb2 and as we all know i had to get wheels with 4x114 PCD. So i get the wheels ( volvo s40 bbs ) and see that i could do with spiggot rings. When i went out and measured with calipers im pretty sure i needed 62-67mm But after reading on various forums it seems civics are 56.1mm ID. Is this correct in my case with the hub swap? And if so do i just need say 56.1mm to ID of my volvo rim?Would love someone to advise me on this, as with what i have been reading there seems to be alot of scaremongery. Also if anyone could point me in the right direction of where to get them.Thanks folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raz s Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 Also i have tapered wheel bolts Instead of the half moon oem honda fitment ones, The seem to be a snug fit into the volvo wheels. Would this not be enough to centre up the wheels? im getting so confused with different answers on other forums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I payed 100 pounds all with 5mm or over tread tryes on off of a volvo nut friend. Obviously they have been refurbed since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
