Does anyone know the inner diameter for a spigot ring on the VR4?

Also any good places online to buy them?

The rimstock website suggests all mitsubishi's are 67.1mm.

Can anyone confirm this??

I spent ages searching for a cheap/good supplier of these, most places want £20+ for a set which is crazy!...however i found a seller on ebay who does them for £8 a set :)

They are important if your wheel has bore in the middle to large to locate the wheel on the boss as this should located the wheel diametrically to the drive train.
You may get lucky and the bolts hold the wheel true. Not something to recommend.
As most wheel manufactures tend to machine that bore to a nominal 67mm diameter bore this means that those wheel can then be made to fit any car.
ignoring PCD and offsets
you could fit a set of saxo wheels onto a legnum with use of a spigot ring:thinking:

Even mine volks have spigot rings COST saving for manufacture

You need them to fit inside the recess on your wheels, and over the rised rim at the center of the hub. The VR4 hub is 67.1mm, as confirmed above. Your wheels could be almost any size bigger than that.

So your spigots will have an inside diameter of 67.1mm, and an outside diameter to match the hole in the center of your wheel in its mounting surface.
