Hello,
I have a question to ask experts.
One of my buddies has a second gen GS as well and he wanted to see if it's safe to have adapters on his car? He wants to convert his lug pattern to 5x112 so he can put on some rims.

He found a few adapters on ebay, a full set for 130-150.

Let me know.

 

Many people on here are running spacers/adapters to get that flush look. As long at they aren't bigger that 30mm, i think he should be ok. Keep in mind that these do put a a bit of extra pressure on some of the wear and tear items like ball joints.

 

I dont see a problem with putting adapters from 5x114.3 to 5x120....just make sure the adapters are hubcentric....and your wheel hubs have the extra spacing for the wheel studs.

 

Thanks, wanted to ask if there's a specific brand or anyone can link me?

 

You can redrill as I did or use wobble bolts

 

I wouldn't get ones from ebay, but brands such as h&r or Ichiba I would use myself.

 

Oh, thanks... He wants to convert his lug pattern to

5x114 (which is ours) to 5x112. I look at a few threads and people seem to just get smaller bolts and it says it fits.

any DIY thread for redrilling? Or good shops around Southern California?

 

Status did mine; had a 2 day turn around time..They've done quite a few members redrills for heyitzalex and myself to name 2...
They can do 120 to 114 as well

 

Did you remember how much they charged?

 

Somewhere in the low 2xx figure range sorta depends on the wheel too I think

 

i run 25mm H&R spacers in the front and 30mm Kics spacers out back. no problems driving around the obstacle course aka Manhattan. how thick are the adapters?
