Was in a car shop yesterday and fell in love with a selection of 13" mini wheels they had in stock, was just wondering if these would fit?

I'd probably need spacers right?

Btw they were £290 for four 13" 7/8 inch wide rims without tyres...I'd go for a narrower set if I got some though.

Any info much appreciated

Would 13's not look pretty damn ridiculous on a Corsa?

Why do you need wobbly bolts and what do they do?

Put simply they will make the wheels fit, as they are not a straight bolt on.
