    I would if adapters didn't cost over $400 for a set of 4.

    Should be less then that...
    Wonder what the offset is like on them.
    EDIT, appears to be fairly agressive from a quick google search. +0 to +12 sort of range, pushing it and thats before adapters

    In my google search I sound that there were 2 versions of these, one low offset and one high. In images of trans ams and such they have these wheels but with more of a concave look...these don't appear to be concaved. But anyways I'm currently working on something else more achievable and cheaper lol.
    Wheel adapters would be cheaper if I had VR6 hubs but with my little 4x100s I need to get 2-piece adapters which are very expensive.
    Just out of interest; How much does a set of VR6 hubs cost and how hard is it to swap them?

    hmm i didnt think the 4 to 5 stud adapters were that much more when I checked last time...
    foffa is looking into it atm in the mk3 section, cant imagine it would be too hard.

    Hmmm, well if current plans fall through I may look into it a bit more.
