Uhh, someone can correct me if I'm wrong...
But unless the rim is designed for 100 or 114.3 pcd, drilling them will make them weak as shit. I'd also like to know what your insurer would think. Go buy the correct rims.

Put a picture up and size and you might be able to sell them and then buy a set that fits. I would be interested if they fit my STi.

Do it, then report back to us when your car turns into a bobsled.

Any machine shop can do it, but it is not physically possible on most rims.
Probably charge about $100 (cashie). Post a pic of your rim type so we can see if it can be done.

Depending on the design of the rim it's possible to do it nicely. It's done by enlarging the existing hole concentric to the desired PCD (inward by only 7.15mm) then pressing in a steel insert.
I expect it would be a costly process though. There is no evidence of the previous pattern and the new insert has a much bigger surface area in the alloy. Going from 114.3 down to 100 does reduce the load capacity somewhat though. |
