Might foul the calipers - some do - other than that yes, I had paj wheels on my old Mav, Cosmic has them on his and bigbluemaverick has had them on his to name a few.

Fitting spaces push it out to miss the calipers then?

where can i get some from if i need them, any ideas?

wheel swop

If you do need spacers beware cheap ones that do not have a proper wheel centering lip.

I had a similar issue when I changed the wheels on my wifes Merc from 16 inch to 17 inch from another Merc model. I needed spacers to clear the brake calliper but more importantly to maintain the wheel offset. I found a supplier on e-bay based in Ireland who imported from Germany and they are excellent albeit a bit pricey.

I found that you will need a minimum of 15 mm just to preserve the wheel centering properties of a hub. I would advise you to check the offsets of your existing wheels against the ones you want to fit. Then fit spacers that will give you the right end result. There is loads of information on the net about offsets but the name is a bit misleading it ought to be called insets !

Expect to pay about £75 or more for well machined items. If you go for cheap spacers you will have issues with wheel wobbles that will not balance out and every time you remove a wheel you will have problems getting it to center properly.

You might need to fit longer wheel bolts as well. To be honest my experience was that the bargain second hand alloys were not such a bargain in the end though they do look cool.

Yeah Zippy,i got Pajero steel rims on,as said,had to get spacers to clear the calipers!.
Only problem i encountered was i had the wrong wheel nuts on,so had to go and get some steel nuts from the scrappy,believe they are of a ford!!
Oh and use some Loctite on the spacer nuts!! :wink: :lol:
