DC5 alloys

I posted a thread about these wheels for my old lude, but just want to check this fit straight on to a lude?

Most website suggest the fitment is all the same, was just wondering if anyone on her could tell me whether spacers were needed when fitting to their lude?

Yes it does. Straight and they look great too.

You don't really need spacers unless you're going for raw "broken suspension look" look and want wheels sticking out the arches.

They look great! There is a set on gumtree at the moment with kumho tyres, all good tread and the alloys themselves are in great condition. Just wanted to make sure they wouldnt rub on full lock or anything, ideally i didnt want to get spacers so the fact they fit is mint!

Cheers bud!

The offset is 60 not the Preludes 55.
I cant remember where i read it but i think they may need a 3mm spacer on the front.
Either way i would space them out 20 and 25mm.
JDLude99 has them spaced like this.

You can run 5mm spacers on the oem bolts. I do in the rear.

Any longer and you need hubcentric with built in bolts.
