The PCD is the same as for the centre bore i\'m not sure they are BBS rims so will i get spigot rings to fit?

Will the rears be OK as they will come out about 28mm more than standard

Yeah spigot rings are fine, infact im sure it will be fine with most things but I have run some GTR rims and the centre bore is smaller and I couldnt get the rings out lol.

You should be fine with that rear.  It will depend on tyre size too, but it should be fine.  I tried to run mine on a 9 +20 before (although it did rub lol, but might of been ok if it wasnt for the 255 tyres.  They rubbed on my S14 too untill I put 235\'s on and now it doesnt rub).

Tyre\'s are 235 45 17 front and 255 40 17 rear and as far as i can tell the centre bore is 60mm so it\'s 0.5 mm too big but will it be OK to fit these or will i need to get spigot rings? and can you get spigot rings for BBS rims or are the machined fit if you know what i mean

If i understand this right you\'re saying the centre bore on the wheel is 0.5mm larger than the centre of the hub? if this is the case you will need that much for clearance anyway other than that the wheel tyre combo will fit fine.
