Hey guys,

These HP Racing rims fit both au and pre au right? Are they designed so that they can fit both cars or do they make 2 different types to fit there respective car. A mate of mine has these on his au falcon and offered to swap them for my ef xr 16" rims. Will they fit on my car aswell and is this a good deal?

Wheels that fit AU onwards can't fit Pre-AU, they won't just magically sprout extra wheel so that they have the right offset...
You'll need hub adapters or spacers or something...
Yes, HP Racing might make the same wheels in both offset.

I'V GOT THESE WHEELS AT THE MOMENT IN 18"s AND THEY NEED A BOLT ON SPACER TO FIT A PRE AU. AND THE SPACERS MAKE THE WHEEL SIT ON BLOODY TIGHT, YOU HAVE TO KICK THE WHEEL TO GET IT OFF, STICK TO ONES THAT YOU DONT NEED THE SPACERS.

That'll depend on the quality of the hub adapter, sounds like you got s**t ones, not made that accurate.
HP Racing do actualyl make some wheels ibn the Pre-AU offset...
