Depends on what wheels.

What wheels you thinking about?

Not under SR/GTE/GSi alloys (unless you get the ET47.5 versions and grind away at the calipers a lot), or SR steelies unless they're the wider ones, but will still need some grinding on the calipers.

Astra/Cavalier steelies or alloys not a problem though.

Maybe it's about time someone added stuff like this into a sticky in the how-to area?

For 256 you will need a minimum wheel size of 5.5J 14"

This will help click (http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=98737)

Agreed mikey, brake/wheel fitment should be in articals.

And yer, 5.5j unless you cut the calipers, il see if i can find some pics of how much mine are cut.
