Re: Backspace / Frontspace on Mk2 Estate?

I have 15x8" front and 15x8.5" rears on my mk2 estate. Offset is around +20 so not sure what that is in terms of front spacing and back spacing

will mk1 hub caps fit mk2 wheels?

Hi all,

Does anyone know if mk1 steel wheels are the same as the mk2 steel wheels?

or really, will mk1 hubcaps (not the full face ones, just the ones that cover the nuts) fit on mk2 steel wheels?

thanks

I vote for the alley cats, they should fit fine.

I have 15x8.5" on the rear and 8" on the front (both with 205/50R15) of my mk2 estate.

Re: SU carb question - needle size calculation?

Hi david,

As a fellow downunder'er (Im in NZ) I know of the holden 202ci engine well.

Why dont you try track down an original manifold and carb for it (stromburg or varijet) rather then using an inadequate sized SU?

cheers
