I had to use them on my Corsa B, 1.2 16v with no bigger brakes. The wheels themselves would clear the breaks fine but the centre caps fouled the centre pin of the hubs behind them, so wouldn't go on properly. Only needed 3 or 5mm spacers, I can't remember.

I need spacers for mine or they catch the calipers on the front and hub caps on the rear.

I was told that if you had new brake pads in the calipers then it would rub but once the pad was worn down it would be ok. My pads have been on for ages so i tried the wheels without the spacers and they still rub off the caliper!!.

When i got the car it had spacers fitted I then fitted uprated calipers and pads. I dont know what what calipers were fitted when i got the car all i know was that they were smaller than the Astra Gsi ones i fitted.
