how do you get camira wheels onto a gemini?
i have a set of factory camira alloys(14x6) which look great on my TE gem, but only the rear fit on, the offset is too great for the front which rubs hard against the shockers!
can anyone let me know how i can get these damn wheels on, as i have seen a few gemini's with camira wheels. |

To get the front ones to fit you need to get the centre hole bored out. you can either take it to an engineering place and get them to do it (this is what i did coz i couldnt be bothered doing it myself!) or you can get a file out and make the hole big enough to fit ova the centre hub, but dont make the hole too big, make it a snug fit, otherwise the wheel may vibrate, which is what i have been told will happen 
don't worry bout them rubbing on the shockers coz they come away from it when the car is on the ground. |

| Then obviously those wheels had been fitted to gemini before you got them... |
