I'm driving an eurovan, on 14" stock PCD 100x4. I recently aquired a set of 15" steels, same PCD specs, ET not too far off. Problem is, the centrebore different. My van has got centrebore of 57.1mm, whereas the steels i got is 56.6mm (from an Opel). Does anyone know of a place where i can get the centrebore shaven just a wee bit? Did heard of a place years ago where there do "inverted steels" or what they called in uk, banded steel rims. Found on some tricked out Hiace/Liteace vans.

Bros, are banded steel rims i.e. inverted steel rims illegal on NGVs? Furthermore, this fella's rim is protruding by more than 30mm off the wheel arch.

go ahead if you are a responsible type of person who knows what you are doing.

But you may soon find our Landtransport Officer will sure chase after you and ask you to visit LTA office for further investigation
