Thread: custom wheel adapters

  1. #11

    Bugger, I wish I had found this guy before I went and had mine done custom. I think I paid $1300 to have mine made custom but i will say the quality of them is amazing.

    I spoke to this guy about 4x100 to 5x114.3 adapters and he said they had to be a 2 piece adapter. I enquired as to how the Euros did 4 to 5 in one adapter and he said he didn't know. I can't see any engineering reason why you couldnt make a 1 piece 4x100 to 5x114.3 adapter.

    Reason they make them a 2 piece for 4x100-5x114.3 is because the holes/studs get too close together, impossible to make as 1 piece.

    That being said, I have seen a 4x100-5x112 done, but they had machined a custom bolt that screwed into the hub and then the wheel stud could screwed into that. It looked super dodge.

    4x100- 5x130 is fine as there is lots of inner room for the 4x100 stud pattern.

    Yeah I see what you're getting at with the hole spacing.
    I'm going to get my 17" BBS RS filled and redrilled.
