jamiea7x Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) mk4 golf 5x100 hubs? redrill? Edited October 10, 2011 by jamiea7x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjjkkk Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Redrill correct Makes it able to run both 4x100 (I love my 14" steelies), and 5x100. 4x100 -> 5x120 spacers are massive, 2-piece, 40mm wide but 5x100 -> 5x120 spacers can be ~20mm thick only so that's what I'm after Next week begins the chopping (inner arches, integrated -camber on rear, custom bagmounts, flipped tie rods, etc, etc etc). Today, we'll try to fit the tyres on. We will also change the wheelbase by moving the rear wheels more back to give an optimal centerline of wheel opening. Wondering how it will affect the handling, prolly I can't even notice the difference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjjkkk Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Yeah, they're as bad/good as my 9.5" 195/40 setup were on TH-Lines (Page 6). First I thought about 185/35, but then realised I want MAD-stretch rather than just stretch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
