Might be getting some spacers for my Clio but they have 57.1 centre bore, is there anything I can do about this as I'm aware Clio is 60.1 centre bore. My alloys are really tight on the centre anyway, is 57.1 a smaller size? I'm going to struggle to get the wheels off anyway. Is there much of a difference between 60.1 and 57.1?

Seen these on eBay, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/57-1-60-1-SPIGOT-RINGS-TO-FIT-VW-GOLF-RENAULT-CLIO-/140522822239
Are they what I'd need to make it fit better or should I be alright as the centre of the wheels seems smaller than 60.1, I really don't have a clue with this haha

Thanks In advance.

The sizes are the centre bore diameter. So 3mm difference in them... Yes there's quite a difference.

If you're getting 57.1 spacers to fit to a 60.1 centre bore on the car they physically won't fit. They'll be 3mm too small.

You need to machine the wheels or get spacer/adapters. Spigots that decrease your centrebore don't exist.

that link you posted is so you can fit wheels with bigger centerbores to cars with smaller ones.
so you can try and fit Clio wheels to a Golf
but cant fit Golf wheels to a Clio.

Okay thank you all for the help! Explained it more clearly to me! I feel a bit stupid now haha, totally forgot about the hubs on the car, I was just thinking about fitting the wheels to the spacers haha, thanks!

Yes - the link you have is for spiggot rings, not spacers.

What width spacers are you looking for, i'm sure one of us can find you the right thing if you let us know what you are trying to achieve.

Yeah I think I know what I'm after, I was just asking if 57.1 cb could be adjusted to fit 60.1, that's the answer I got too

I'm looking for cheap hubcentric spacers 25mm and 20mm. Saw some on eBay that were on £1 bid with a day left that were 57.1 cb so I thought I'd ask if it would work getting them. Obviously not though. I'm just going to be patient!
