    My mate has a lovely set of Alloys for his Passat. He is selling his car and he said he will give me his Alloys for my 01 Almera (cheap).
    They are 17 inch. Will they fit my car ?

    I'm not sure that VW alloys will fit Nissans. I think the Passat is five stud whereas the Almera maybe four stud.

    The standard wheel size on the Almera is 14/15" so putting 17" will offset the speedometer and odometer. Also the profile of tyre may need to be 40 or 45 otherwise they may be rub against the wheel arch if they fit, make sure you can lock the front wheels from one side to the other without rubbing as this will cause damage to the tyres.

    Best thing to do is try and fit one on and see how it fits.

    Afraid not mate , the stud pattern is different on the passat than the almera.

    Yeah, but they look "deadly"
