pro race 1.2's can be fitted in a 7.5 inch rim without spacers.

but most 17's will require spacers.

Thanks guys! The wheels I really wanted are Rota "Torque" and they are 17 x 7.5 et 45 and the guy who I went into a shop said he thinks they wouldnt fit...and they tried a 17" Ultralite alloy in Mini fitment to test and they said only a 18 would clear it... am confused. I trust everyone here more then others but some people are too stubborn as I told him about people on here.Need to find a shop that has them in stock near me and see in person if they fit...I know its hard to tell from a pic but what does everyone else think..if 1.2's fit I dont see why these shouldn't with or without spacers.Just badly want these wheels.

The internal sides of all makes are not the same.

For minor clearance issues spacers can be used but remember your offset will be altered!

We can supply the correct 17" pro race 1.2s in a direct bore fitment in the correct et45 offset to clear the brakes without any spacers!

Being a direct Team dynamics dealer we can spec any wheel you require!
