To be super safe then yes, you could blag it and you should still be ok

I have a set on my k11 without spigot rings and have had no problems ,I have 195/50x15 on front and 205/50x 15 tyres on the rear.I hope this helps-I have suffered a little balance problem at around 70mph which has not been cured by wheel balnc ing so it could be down to the lack of spigot rings-Jon

So in a nuts shell i need spigot rings to put these wheels on next question is where do i get them from?

thanks lads for info

You should be able to get them in Halfords or similar but from experience I would go to an ally wheel specialist who knows what they are about ,often places like halfords/motorworld sell wheels and fixings but have no clue what they or you are talking about-Jon

internal bore seems ok you will have to measure inside of alloy wheels & compare to outside measurement listed on e-bay they list around 76mm which sounds too large-Jon

this is a lot of mucking about i think i sell the wheels and get brand new wheels with fitting kits anyhow big thxs mate for the help and advice

Just stick them on as they are, as long as the taper of your nuts matches the taper on the wheels they'll be fine.

And if you do get a bit of a vibration turn the offending wheel round 90 degrees on the studs and give it another go. Oh and be carefull to tighten the nuts up in sequence (opposites, to stop the wheel being pulled off center).
