Iv found some alloys I like but dont know if they would fit or could fit.

They are et49 and everywhere else I look it says Leon 1.6 2002 would need to be et32 or et35.

Is there a way around this?
 
you will need 14mm spacers.. 15mm or 20mm are probably a better bet tho :)
 
And possible different spigot rings to get the right centre bore, they sould like Subaru wheels?

And longer bolts

hehe rally OZ's wana see?

seems to be a 5x114.3 set up so guessing i would need longer bolts like you said, heres the spec

"Size 18/8

ET 49

PCD 5x114.3

Centre bore 56.10

MONOblock Design"
 
would 14mm's mke it look normal as if i were to hve et35s on in the first place or would it make it lool wide? im all for making it look agressively wide and planted looking.

14mm would be normal, et49 +14mm =et35.. if you stuck 20mm spacers on that'd move them out 6mm more than standard. personally i wouldn't want to use spacers thicker than 20mm due to the extra forces induced on the wheel bolts and other components.

et49 +14mm =et35 - This I understand, makes more sense to me know. cheers. :)

haha this makes total sense (no really!)

so go for 20m's then?

57.1 Bore is what you need so make sure they take spigot rings and are not cast.

And you need 5x100
 
Its light

You know a leon is 5x100 stud pattern not 5x114.3 yeah?

You could use hub centric spacers that change the PCD but there about £200 on top of the wheel price.

Awesome! and yeas i know that, can i just use longer bolts? or s there more to it than that?

no idea what those are - il try googling it.

HaHa i love how im on here rather than doing my 6week design projexct due in Thursday (not even started propally yet)

No the holes in those alloys will not line up with the holes on the car.....longer bolts wont help you :cartman:
