What about a set of 5x112mm for the folks located in Europe? So you can use Audi/ VW/ Mercedes - wheels...

I can make the 5x120 for BMW pattern or even 5x130 for the old porsche pattern.
Whatever you want. :wink:

hmm... a friend of mine has a nice set of BBS 3-piece wheels lying around from a Porsche, 8+10Jx16 with the 5x130 pattern. :idea:

Would require some heavy cutting at the rear'... :(

Any updates Daniel? To remove the front studs, you just press them out? Can they be knocked out with a large hammer?

Knock them out, but put a piece of wood (or similar) in between the mallet and the stud or you will get distorted threads in the nose of the studs.

Thanks a lot for that tip Matz. I would have figured a press would have been necessary since I have 0 personal experience :roll:

A press is too slow and will quite often bend the stud before it pops out.
