C2 alloys on zx
Would 16inch alloys from a C2 VTR fit a ZX volcane ? Or will I have a severe rubbing situation ?

One of the bx16v club guys put a set of c2gt alloys on his bx, they will fit although they do have a considerable 'inset' rather than offset so you may find that they rub on the inner arches, especially on the front!! you may well find that you will need spacers and longer wheel bolts to bring them out to the 'normal' wheel position!
Hi there,
I bought a ZX Volcane with 16 inch alloys and 195/46 R16 tyres fitted. The front wheels are bolted directly onto the hub and clear the arches without any problems.
The rear wheels have half inch spacers fitted to make them clear arch sides. It looks like the owner initially tried running them without any spacers as there's alot of rubbing of the arch sides.
It seems a worthwhile upgrade though as the car corners like a dream.
