I've had a set of revolution rfx wheels for about 4 years in my garage and I've finally gotten around to getting them cleaned up and painted...

now they've been sorted I've realised that they may not even fit!? I've searched to find out what the width and offset are as they aren't stamped on the wheels, but can't find any gm fitment in 15"... Which is worrying!

can anyone confirm that the Motorsport wheels were available for a Vauxhal in 15"?

please!

I have a set of Motorsport spec rfxs in the garage and they fit perfect and I'm sure there no stamps marking on them regarding size offset etc

Are they 15s? Do you know the offset? I'm guessing 42, based on the 14 size!
i think mine Are 7j?

I'm pretty sure mine are 6j and defiantly 6j, haven't check offset I did have some pics of when I trial fitted one I'll see if I can find it

Excellent, I've fitted tyres on mine, so will let you know how I get on lol. What nuts/studs have you used? Mine have a really shallow taper!

I only trial fitted one, never fitted them, I used standard bolts to hold it on but was only able to screw it in one thread as I need longer bolts

Some rfx are designed to be used with the long revolution nuts and studs mate

Yes - they are the motorsport variants that I have - I just had a wave of paranoia that they didn't make a GM RFX in 15" lol

I have a set of 6x15" RFX's in 4x100 et49. I recently sold some 7x15" 4x100 et49 in Group A fitment with large inserts.

Ahhh great - OK, Let's hope they are ET49 as anything lower and it could be problematic!
Its odd that it doesn't have any markings on the inside of the wheel though re ET and width! It just has '1620' iirc
