been having a look at this but i'm having a blonde moment and can't get my head around this, really need to sort out 100% if I can make ET42 rims fit my ur before I order them over the next few days.

Anyone able to say if I can change from the fusch alloys (not sure et on them) to a set of ET42 rims please
