Alloy Wheels
Ive just bought a 97 honda accord with a set of OZ Saturn plus alloys, the insurance man wants £800 to insure the car with them on, so they are sat in
the garage with all my locost bits,
Has any one tried to fit alloys with the wrong pcd & offset to a standard ford hub & axle with adaptor plates or redrilling 45 degrees
round,,
The Honda wheels are 7J, 114.3mm pcd & ET 40.
Or should I just sell them on ebay & buy a set of capri lazer whelels
thanks in advance

IIRC
I saw someone do it once - but IMHO I wouldn't. It's the only thing which you rely on sticking you to the road...

New alloys are so cheap these day, I would buy exactly what you want. I bought a set of 4 7x15 today for a Mazda 323 for only £179.99 +vat, the
original Mazda alloy was, at the last available price, £289.65+VAT, but was unavailable, the insurance co gave me a free reign to buy a set of 4 if
less than the cost of the one Mazda one that was damaged. Tidy profit for the company, nice addition to my monthly bonus!!!
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation
