Notes This wheel has been manufactured for the "after market" only - the original factory fitted wheels are alloys, which vary in style & sizes (17", 19" & 20").

There may be clearance problems if the vehicle has been fitted with Brembo brakes. The standard brake callipers were ATE however, Brembo callipers were offered as an upgrade and fitted as standard on some higher spec models. Always check which braking system is being used.
