    sorry, might have been confusing.
    i had to get adapters for my wheels as they are 5x114.3 with (what i thought was) a 60 centre bore all round. turns out the two rears are actually 66 and the fronts are 60, if id know i would have ordered the adapters bigger for the rear as they were custom made.

    Edit: if you were referring to the wheels, well I don't think there's much chance of returning them...

    Just a thought (and i have absoultely no idea about this), but wouldnt it be possible to get the smaller bore of 60 opened up to 66 as you require for the rear?

    unlucky though mate, i wanna see the wheels on!

    its sort of reverse to how your thinking, i need my adapters to "grow" to fit the wheel. I'll take a picture tonight to explain.

    I should be ordering tyres tonight through tirerack as they are almost half the price after shipping of what i could get here, and i also cant get the size i want here...

    I want them on too (before i know it everyone will be rocking BBS RS ). I didnt take any of the front, but heres a quicky of the rear between rain and darkness



    EDIT: Oh and there is a jack taking the weight of the car

    can you use some hub ring spacers (on the bolt-on spacers) ? not sure if that will work.

    Oh yeh I get what you are saying now...for some reason I was thinking about the bore? of the wheels being 60 not the adapters

    I just had some hubcentric rings machined up last week (ended up to be around 9mm hub - bore difference), they ended up costing $80 and they fit really well. I'm in QLD though so can't help you with places to get them done.

    discovered when returning to my car at the station my freaking rear numberplate has been stolen. Just reported to the cops. Some punk kid now has a nice wall ornament.
