Has anyone used wheel adaptors to convert 4 stud hubs to 5 stud. Do they simply bolt on the existing hub? Or is it just better/cheaper to re-drill the wheel to fit? All the wheels i fancy are 5 studders an its pi##ing me off!

well depend on the wheel u want to put on wat the offset is and the j size i had 2 of my cars drilled 5/100 if u use an orignal audi or vw wheel the wheel generally clears for the centre bores are the same but depends on the wheel all 5/100 vw audi wheels centre bores and the same i had a 17`/7,5j audi tt wheel on my mk1
another option is if the pcd of the wheel is covered u can get the holes closed and redrilled 4/100
we used to do that in south africa my friend owns a wheel shop i put a ford fiesta st150 wheel on a mk1 i ownedComment

i think the easiest & cheapest way is to buy new hubs & have them redrilled to suit
you bolt the new 4 hole hub to the 5 stud wheel in 1 hole as one hole will line up,
that shall act as a piolet guid to drill through the existing bolt hole in the wheel & then staight through the hub to make another 4 holes in the wheel
then fit new rear discs that are a 5 stud fitComment
