Yep they are right - the back isnt a problem.

But you need big shafts for the front, ie 20xe, let whatever.

Or you can use a spacer/hub convertor affair, a bit like you would do if you were putting Porsche wheels on, or what Iaz has on the Jag Corsa and what Boyracer2002 has on his bad boy

But there is no way you'd get those Cally wheels on using spacers

Yea, it only works with high offset wheels like Porshche wheels.... Even then you are left with somethinglike ET30...

same as people not using bigger hubs for XE conversions except the other way about..
