    Re-Drillable?

    Anyone know if these are able to be re-drilled to 4x100? (Site in German sorry)

    I might be able to get a set for my mk3 if they can be easily and safely filled / re-drilled to fit.

    anyone care to hazard a guess at the cost to do so?

    I know nothing about re drilling sorry, but first thing i would be checking is if they are flat backed.
    There is currently a set of wheels similar for sale on here that have been filled and drilled. maybe contact the person who did those originally? cant remember who though

    you could get them done,
    with a 4x100 pcd and 5x100 pcd one hole is common and the second hole is close to the original hole ,
    check if they have enough metal at the back and if should be ok ,
    have to have a cover as well or they will look shocking.

    Change your MK3 to VR6 brakes and hubs and they'll bolt straight on.

    Those are the stock Audi A3 wheels right? Mikinoz had a set redrilled to 4x100 I remember. Will cost your around ~$120/wheel, as they'll be needing to fill them first before redrilling.

    yeah they're a3 winter wheels i think, commonly known as pepper pots, and the'yre flat backed.

    Anyone know some good wheel shops around Gold Coast / Brisbane who could do it (preferably for cheap) that i could check out?

    yer i had those wheels and sold them to mikinoz, i am fairly sure he still has them and may be keen to part with them.
