hub/wheel adapters?

Post by M@Turner »

Whats the smallest size in spacing you can get with 5x100 - 5/112.

Have seen some 15mm FK ones but think that maybe too much with the alloys i'm looking at been 7x17 offset 47!!!

Can anybody share some knowledge please?

I think 15mm will probably be fine mate.

What size tyres are you running?

That does look really nice, but its been done already!!!

Think thats why i want something different!!

Still unsure what i'm doing (depends on job prospects), but if i have all the info i need should i go down the mods route, it can get done really quickly! 8)

By my reckoning, £1000 is roughly what it would cost for future mods! :? :P

I worked mine out (made a little word doc on it :P ), and my mods list for 2008 adds up to about £850! and that's not budgeting for interior if I bump into any!
