<b>Does anyone know of a local engineering company who can manufacture me some wheel adapter plates ??

What i mean is i want to use vauxhal fitment wheels on the Cruisewirral Transit van.

What is needed is a plate made to bolt onto the exhisting hub of the Transit and change the stud pattern to Vauxhall stud pattern.

Why i hear you ask, Well the price of 16" alloys for the Transit is about £800 with tyres and i can get Vauxhall fitment 18" alloys for about £450 with tyres.....

I Want the Transit sitting in 18's

How about a hub conversion scooby?and these adaptors are gonna have to be quite thick which will push the wheels out loads, i can see it now, even with 7x18 rims its gonna be protruding loads. I think?! Hub conversion is the only way matey,The only other option is to fork out mucho wonga for the correct fitment 18's.

Paz's old workplace, W.Bibby's engineering in Neston should sort you out mate. Ask Paz for the no. though coz I aint got a clue.

<b>A Hub Conversion is not possible, The ford transit has a very weird hub, not like any other vehicle......

its a transit van, they aint made to handle well, i got some super glue to help you stick to the road. he he

other than that MR engineering it's by peco

Get the arches flared scooby, u know it makes sense.

they do convertor spacers and may be able to help. If you know your PCD then this would help.
If not, send me an e-mail and I'll point you to a local guy who looks after my Lotus. He's very reasonable and has his own engineering workshop.
