Tuscans had different offsets for 18" Spiders on front and rear:

Front ET42
Rear ET33

If you have a set with two of each, they'll fit a Tuscan. If you're trying to fit them to a Cerbera, you supposedly need ET42 on both front and rear to prevent rubbing, although some people fit ET33 on the back with no problems.

My belief was that the other T-Cars were as the Tuscan, but hopefully someone more knowledgeable will be along in a moment to confirm or deny that smile

Thanks bob. Sounds good to me.

Was just worried I might end up with a wheel which would fit neither the front nor rear of the Tuscan. So even if a rear wheel is incorrectly described, it should fit the front (happy to keep a spare should I damage one)
