Driftworks are the only place iv seen them.

Iv never seen them stocked anywhere here.

Try Urban performance, 32tuning and tuning-factory.
None of them are in Meath though.

That depends on the offset of the wheels versus the factory offset and if your car is lowered or not.

You kinda have to know about it if your going to fit aftermarket wheels on your car. The fact that the studs match up(almost) is only one part of wheel fitment.

If the offset is too high above the factory figure then the wheels could be rubbing on the suspension and if its too low they could rub on the wheel arches when you go over bumps.

6.5j is the width of the wheel alright, offset is how far in or out it sits from the hub when its mounted.

You should see an offset figure stamped somwhere written usually like et35, et45 or whatever. Your original wheels should also have the same marking so you can compare.

and bear in mind you may have to have the bolt-holes on the new wheels drilled a fraction to allow for fitting the wobble bolts.
