nice find, hitman might be able to say if they are anygood, or he might know them.

thats pretty cheap but then you need to ship them over here?! they'd be heavy and probably not cheap to ship?

I had a set from the US shipped for $90USD. Set of 4 adapters + studs and nuts hardware. I can't imagine it'd be much more than $100NZD to ship over, which would still mean it's a decent price. Nice find though!

i was thinking because fk and h&r dont readily make 5x114.3 to whatever... or not that i can find.

so from any fitment to any fitment (effectively), they seem alright.

there are plenty of bbs rs/merc wheels/jap splits/bmw wheels that'd look sooooo hawt if they fit. especially these: (which aren't redrillable)



edit: these wheels are 4x110, but they're 15x8 and have an et of like 40...

The guy who runs the company used to post up on the R31 Skyline Club forums a while ago IIRC and sold a few sets through there. Had pretty decent feedback from what I remember and is well priced.
Might look into a set for myself soon once Ive made my mind up!!

those rims are sick!

Adapters from 5 stud to 4 would certainly open up the options on wheels and they are priced damn well!

I dont think I would want to stick them on my MkII though as they are still completely illegal without engineering(if you get caught) here. Or should I not be concerned?

nice find jayjay!

Bugger, I wish I had found this guy before I went and had mine done custom. I think I paid $1300 to have mine made custom but i will say the quality of them is amazing.

I spoke to this guy about 4x100 to 5x114.3 adapters and he said they had to be a 2 piece adapter. I enquired as to how the Euros did 4 to 5 in one adapter and he said he didn't know. I can't see any engineering reason why you couldnt make a 1 piece 4x100 to 5x114.3 adapter.

Reason they make them a 2 piece for 4x100-5x114.3 is because the holes/studs get too close together, impossible to make as 1 piece.

That being said, I have seen a 4x100-5x112 done, but they had machined a custom bolt that screwed into the hub and then the wheel stud could screwed into that. It looked super dodge.

4x100- 5x130 is fine as there is lots of inner room for the 4x100 stud pattern.

Yeah I see what you're getting at with the hole spacing.
I'm going to get my 17" BBS RS filled and redrilled.

Is that safe/legal?
