Confused, you shouldn't need any additional hardware to fit Cesaros on a Nova?

They cant be cesaro's, unless theyve been fitted to something else non-vaux in the past....

Most vauxhalls take a 56.6 spigot for aftermarket wheels,but as everyone else has stated if they are cesaros it should be a direct fit.pics of wheels may help incase they are not genuine vauxhall.

they are definately cesaros,dont know why they dont fit as the centre bore of the wheel should be spot on for a nova.

There looks to be about a mil of gap there, wont get any spiggot rings that small, but theyre already fitted so you dont need rings on them lol

Another vote for them being OK. Spud nailed it. What do you expect to be able to fit in there? [crap joke goes here]

I ran 4x101.6 PCD wheels with oversized CB on 4x100 hubs with no spigot rings, and chocolate wobble nuts with studs that were too short.
I'm still here!

I think you will be fine with those. [EDIT] Find a picture of some others, and see how close the cast in characters are to the CB lip, and compare.

nah there not okay because i get slight wheel wobble as the cause of not having them. and yes i have balanced my wheels many times.
one of my wheels already has a spigot ring on with no writing on it. and they are slightly bevelled so it deffinetly needs one!

thanks for the help

Unless some one has filed out the center, they should fit.

But for such a tiny gap you can use plumbers ptfe tape. Iirc 4 layers is about 1mm.

The wheel bolts will be holding the wheel central though? Spiggot rings are only made of plastic and highly unlikely if they are missing, to be the cause if your wobble.

What's the bolt seats like? If the centres have been turned to fit another application, I'd highly likely the seats may have been altered too.

I ran Renault 19 16v alloys on my first Nova. CB on those was bigger than the Nova. The bolts centralised the wheel. If you have a wobble its because they are buckled or the tracing is out, or they need weighting properly.

Iirc the plastic spiggot rings are only to keep the wheel centralised making it easier to put the wheel bolts in.

Theres way more than a 1mm gap in there. I reckon you can fit spigot rings in and I 'd advise it...borrow some digital calipers and measure the bore and hub

the bolt seats seem fine, and it has a spiggot ring on one of the wheels, and they are needed because i thought the same as you john as the bolts are tapered. but apparently not so!
Curtoise

just looked at the one spiggot ring thats on it and it has a 56.6 on it so this must be the size! thanks for your help!

Balancing. Tracking wont give wobble..

It has been tracked up by myself and balanced the wheels and also checked the wheels to see if they are buckled. Looked for play in the joints and no luck they are all tight. My friend had the same problem on his caddy and new spigot rings fixed it

If the wheels sitting off center, it will run like a cam lobe (if you get me as it will be over center when spinning) Check you've not lost wheel weight.




Believe me, i've looked in to this alot, as my cb if a bit of have to use wobble wheel bolts...
