Redrilling hubs

[OEM G60]

A friend of mine has double drilled hubs on his Corrado VR6, he has 5x100 and 5x112.
As you said Ray, the hub isn't quite big enough, he had his banded though, a doughnut welded around them basically.

Then you can go by Preeno's plans as above

BUT

You may have to enlarge the recess on the back of your rotors where they fit over the hubs....

Then you'll be in business.

That's not going to be cheap, Ray. I could do all that for you if i lived in syd. I'm sure you could find a good machineshop somewhere, right?

You could send Preeny a set of new hubs ray and get him to drill and tap em for you.

I reckon rear discs would be easy, front hubs might be tight.

It`ll be a pain when you need new rear disks too

Thanks for the info fellas!

Yeah I figured from the start it wouldn't be cheap, just wanted to know whether or not it was possible and the process of it all.

Matt, does your mate have any pics of his hub? I'm wondering if it would be safe and all, seeing as the new holes will have to be drilled through right on the edge. Also good point there with enlarging the recess to fit over the banded hub... sounding a whole lot more complicated now.

Haha being able to use low offset Jap wheels is very appealing to me, but I think I'd be putting myself in deep **** for doing so.
