Pretty confused with it all I must say.

I thought it must be 53 but then i whipped my wheel off just now and the only numbers i can see which are similar is 45.

These are not Suabru wheels they are aftermarket 19's. I thought they were going to be 53 but cant see it written. I also have spacers on the car and these are probably 10mm thick ....

confused? you should be because I am.

The standard wheels are 53 for definate.

if you measure from the rear of the wheel to the rear of the hub and then subtract half of the overall wheel thickness you will get the required measurement......

Not as easy as it sounds with a tyre on but worth a look.

why?? find /cut something to the same width as the wheel diameter. measure the hub you should be able to find the wheel thickness on it surely. maybe a 7" so mutiply by 25.4 for mm...... sounds easy to me..

I know where your coming from matey.

I have written all the codes etc from the wheel on a piece of paper, so first things first lets see if my mate who deals in wheels can work out what it is. If not then I will have the wheel back off again and get amongst the measuring game.
