Thanks, Andrew > Hey guys, a few of you have been waiting for me to get off my butt and > fit my rims to see if they would actually fit the car. Good news, > they do indeed fit and perfectly.

Thickness will depend on what front hubs you have. i.e > you need thicker ones on the front as the 200B hubs have a slightly > smaller diameter locating face.
