    Every set of older Volk GTC and GRC wheels I have seen have come stamped as 4/5x114.3, but the wheel hubs are all 4/5x100 that came with 4/5x114.3 adapters (vary rerely seem them though).

    That's bizarre, first i've heard of a company selling wheels like that!

    RH sell wheels like that almost all the time(usually 5x112 with adaptors to suit 5x100),if your seriously interested in these id ask for rear view shots of the wheels if your intending buying and refurbing the centres color coded or otherwise.We just finished a 16" set and the centres are ovaloid with fill sections that corrode seriously and break up and the wheel bolts are a mixture of M6's and M7's

    corrosion on everything? whats that?

    Oh yea, we don't salt our roads

    (although yes, valid point, and it's possible that that could happen if the wheels weren't looked after at all..)
