    Centre Bore increase

    Hi im looking at getting some OZ superleggera wheels for my Polo 6R which has a 57.1 CB. But the OZ wheels i want are made for subaru fitment i believe which is 56.1? Can i get the CB increased on the wheels and what are some good places in Sydney for this? Also what would approximate prices be? THanks

    Speak to Guy Harding from Harding Performance/APR, sponsor on these forums. The APR Polo GTI car has these wheels so he could certainly provide the information you need.

    When I had wheels with a smaller centre bore than the hub on the car I had the wheels machined out to the size of the hub. Cost me about $100 from memory but was worth it to get the wheels to fit. Just a thought.

    pretty common operation, and not too difficult.

    Should cost you too much. any decent machine shop could do it, but if you find a wheel rebuilder etc they should have no trouble doing it, and it shouldn't cost you an arm and a leg.

    Neale Wheels, Enfield. Don't trust just any machine shop. These guys have been doing it for longer than I've existed!
