Hey , Needing some custom adaptor/spacers made , going to be from 5x120 to 5x120.6 and they need to be around 40mm in thickness. Daring i know but who do you guys recommend i entrust with this job? And hopefully at a half reasonable price?
Thanks in advance

I used these a few months ago... www.superforma.co.uk/quick turnaround and precision is spot on. Think they do 10% discounts via their facebook page and some car forums - unfortunately i didn't find that until I'd already bought mine but they're about £120 a pair for 25mm so 40mm would be a bit more I guess. Edited to say that the PCDs you require are actually on their standard list on their configurator so you can get an immediate price.

So, you want adaptors to change 0.6 of a mil? So.. Spacers and wobble bolts?

Centre bore needs to be 70.5 over a standard bmw cb tho may work out better to get them custom done?

Dude, I've been running Chevy pattern wheels on BMW's for AGES
Get the centrebore opened up, throw any idea of spigot rings in the bin and get em fitted!

Yeah that 0.3mm per bolt is more than taken up with slop in the threads. Ideally you'd always want to run hubcentric where possible though, but only to make the wheels go on easier - If it's going to cost loads more then I wouldn't worry too much.

If it's E36 then converting to studs has got to be an idea, we have 'perfected' a method of getting chrome modulars on the front of the driftcar but it's far from easy!

So basically , used hubcentric spacers and had the centre turned down a few mill to fit in the chevy wheels. Using standard nuts as well all seems to be well but i am yet to drive it on the street, thanks for the answers and suggestions though guys.
