Sup ia I just recently got some 16x8 bbs rs that are 5x112 (I think) and I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get them re-drilled to a 4x100 pattern locally? really need to find out cause I don't want to use adapters so any info is very appreciated!!! Thanks

5x112 to 4x100.. no. I mean rs' are multi piece are you can possibly find 4x100 faces and use the barrels you have now.
you can redrill 5x112 to 5x114 but even then.. it might not be worth your time since it'll "compromise the rigidity of the wheels".. or so im told

My Focus is rolling on a set of wheels that were redrilled from a five bolt pattern to the Focus 4x108 and haven't had any problems with it at all.
Here is a link about them that a Google search turned up: http://www.impalassforum.com/vBulletin/showthread.php?t=237636
Here is the company in Ga that can do it: http://www.wheelwizard.com/

If you cant find anyone local...look up rbwheels.com. Im sure you can ship them out and have them done as they will fill and re-drill the wheels they sell before they are shipped. Its something like $200 for all four wheels.

in the event they dont why would you need to fill and redrill for a BBS anyways? its covered by the center cap. i'd have them reuse at least one of the pre-existing holes and work around that.

It would probably make the wheels weak or the holes too big for the studs/lugs.

i can see the logic in that. But i've seen some wheels drilled to hell and back. from my experience it can be driven on just fine. JITB's Lowenharts were drilled 5x112 and 5x114.3 at some point there were two holes that like fuckin intersected looking close to an 8. But it rode fine and he never had any complications with the holes being situated in that manner. then again these arent poorly constructed wheels so you may have more room for funky lookin drill jobs. :dunno:

Something I'm kind of surprised no one else has asked, BUT why would even get wheels for a car that you know aren't going to work? Doesn't make sense to me. Later, QD.

(Dirty) I was thinking the same thing lol but rotiform said it would be best to fill and drill
(Qd) if u came across some bbs rs wheels for $175 your telling me u wouldn't make em fit your car?

If I were into that, I'd probably get them and sell them for more (I guess you're saying you got a deal on them) and then get a set made for your car. I, myself, don't treat wheels as Gods or anything. They're just wheels. But they don't make them in your lug pattern? Later, QD.

well if they won't fit I wouldn't mind taking them off your hands.. seriously =]
I would search ebay or vwvortex for some 4x100 faces though..

this makes sense. 4x100 faces won't be cheap though, they are in demand by almost every bmw/vw owner.....

4x114 and 4x100 sets range from around $600-3000 usually so he did get a good deal....as long as theyre real and theyre 2 piece/3 piece.

Yes they are 3 piece, and as far as finding some 4x100 faces it isn't happening.. It would just b easier to just get them filled and drilled

Take it to Wheel Wizard - they can look at them and tell you what can be done. if they are single drilled right now - they may be able to just add your 4x100 pattern. If not - maybe they can do a fill and drill. Good Luck !
