Not a chance, 2 issues 1) nobody makes adaptors to go from 5x100 to 4x100, you can how get them for the other way round, 2) ET25 if you had say 20mm adaptors made this would end up at et5 so you will need major work on your arches.

Thanx for looking fella bt again not really my taste. You look up bbs rs and rm's on google images and then you'll know what im talking about.
I had a mate quote me in germany on some bbs rm's perfect fit(specialy made for other vr6's) £1500. To steep for me bt were a beautiful set of wheels.

Just found a set of bbs alloys and found adaptors at 15mm thick to fit from my vr6 5x100 to 5x114.3 stud fitment.
However, the offset on the bbs alloys are 43. I take that leaves me with a new offset of 28. :sad:
The main problem being is that a vr6's et should between 35-38 i think.
Will 28 be a problem for these alloys to fit ok? I know they obviously wont be perfect bt would i get away with it.

Will be ok unless you go silly low then you may need arch work.
