From what I've seen, wobble bolts are for cars that use bolts to attach the wheel to the rotor. Not our cars which have bolts drilled in and lugs. So that's outta the question. Go with a redrill or wide body fenders.

Or if you don't want to do any of the above there's always fender flares

(pulled this from one of the sc fender flare threads)


Warning: this could get you flamed lol

I'm already going to flame him for spray painting his badges while they were on the car. Seriously WTF . . . . .

I'd get the wheels redrilled, they should fit nice without the 1" adapater.

Just have them redrilled like many have said. I would never use wobble bolts on an SC. Nice wheels though.

Lower and camber, roll and a lil pull. I had more poke than that and mine fit just fine...now! lol. But thats permanent mods, so if you plan on getting a new set they are going to have to be fairly aggressive. If your not wanting that then just get new wheels now.

Lol this was a case of friends thinking it would be funny to plastidip the back of my car before I knew it could peel off

So I'm guessing these wobble nuts are the wrong application for a sc and I will look into re-drilling. Around what cost should I be looking for, for someone to do it right

Is that what all that **** was from on the back lol. Dude just get some wheels that fit your car. Looks wack with some skinn wheels on the back just to have them. Sell them and get same ones that are made for your car.

wobble (also called variation) lugs or bolts (both exist) will only work from 5x112/5x114.3, 5x110/5x112, etc. the max variation is 2.5mm, they cant move 6mm. redrill them and be happy.

Ive redrill 3 sets now. My buddy owns a shop and what he charges me is 120 for all 4 wheels.

Your best choices are:
1) Re-drill to 5x114.3
2)Smaller tires and more camber
3) Flare/pull fenders and camber

What size adapters are you running?
