Look really smart :cool: :cool:
-
I like those!
-
Look good :smiley:
-
They're so sexy! :laugh:
Would love some on mine,but the 4x100 to 5x130 adaptors are £100+! :embarassed:
-
They look.........................................gay
-
Better painted or polished, unlike these.
Still savage though!

Alright homophobe! :grin:

I quite like them, any pictures of them on a Scirocco? (mk2) :rolleyes:
-
:cry: I got excited i thought there where was gonna be a place to buy cookie cutters that make cookies in the shape of a porsche 911 or something..... maybe some golf ones.... yum mk4 triple chocolate cookies....... :grin:
-
mmmmm cookie cutters :tongue:
-
I knew jay would get involved in this one :grin: smell cookies can we jay :laugh: :laugh: Hows things mate not seen you on here in a while or you been hiding?

Christmas Hols Kai, family been away for awhile, just catching up we had no tinternet and can't stand using 3G just to read mail!
All good though, no electronic gagets to bog the mind down, just the phone to pick up messages. :cool:
Yeah it was good, hope everyone including you had a good one?
I better not spam too much on a Newyear post LOL :wink:
Jay

What size hub adapter would i have to use if there 15-7j

Ah spam away, good to see you back.

Porsche use (5x130) we use (4x100) the proper way to sort them is to change the hub to a VR6 5x100
VR6 larger CVs and matching 5x100 hubs or early passat hubs 5x100 then do the adaptor to (5x130)
There are companies that can machine off something, but its not safe due to the pattern stud offsets being 4x100 already! Not saying it can't be done, but with certain forces, drilling brake discs and wheel bearing stress the thickness of the adaptor plates would be lets say quiet thick to cope with a direct adaptor to cope with the mixed stud pattern!

Haaa thanks mate its just been chill time for me! :cool:

love them :cool: adaptor wise isnt i think its the 5x130 someone correct me if im wrong.
edit: too slow just seen your post aftwards Jay.
-
but don’t people use Adapters for d90's ect? and it seems a bit long to change it all. I don’t no to much about this all
-
yup there 5x130
-
Yes like I said H&R or FK do something, but depends if you use it as a daily or just for show?
Think about the pattern 4x100 to 5x130 there would be overlap correct? Now think about brake discs and the redrilling? Like I said just think about what you are converting? Your car, up to you what you think is safe and easy! I'm just the information monkey who offers options :wink:
-
Well thank you information monkey i think i am going to fined some different wheels because these seem like a lot of hassle and money to do i will keep looking but if anyone did want these here is the link

Those cookies look in really good condition, do really like the audi wheels on the last pic :grin:
-
Jay, i have 4x100 to 5x130 adapters and there isn't any overlap on the bolts.
The wife did 8 thousand miles in her cabrio on adapters and i've been running my golf for 6 months.
130 is a big enough pcd for there not being any overlap.
To the o.p. Thickness depends more on the offset of the wheels rather than size

White with red centres?

Ok what i actually ment is i like those style of audi wheels, not that keen on santa's sledge colouring :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

What about the brake discs?
Give it a year then check the wheel bearings guess it depends on how you drive and what golf its on?
-
ah thanks they could be back on the plate then
-
Damn you dave I was going to say bout et. Good job I read through 1st. I don't see how it will affect the brake disc though jay? Maybe its me just having an idiot moment though.
-
Hey like I said how much meat will you have between the 4x100 to 5x130?
Your discs will have to be re drilled to match the 5 stud by overlap I mean how much meat between holes?
By all means run them at your own risk I'm old Skool but hey shoot me?
In America they are illegal (due to accidents) only in Europe you can by H&R's
Like I said I know from an engineers perspective on dynamic forces on those hubs!
From a cool perspective yeah get em and drive hard see what happens :evil:
Offset can be affected depends how thick the adaptors are after all thicker the safer but depending upon what alloys are running with them, it will push them out maybe too far out? So its important you know what offset you have and going to run 7J would be 7.5J possibly or even more I don't run spacers for that stress hence I prefer performance than show (shrug shoulders)
-
Jay. Not sure if we have crossed lines. Adapters bolt to the hub through the disc using the vw's 4x100 pcd. The wheel bolts to the adapter. No need to drill the disc.
Are you thinking of redrilling hubs?
-
Ahhhh I see. I don't run spacers but I have et25 wheels on my car which stick out a fair bit. But are under the arch. U can get different thickness adaptors though can't you so its all on a preferance I spose mate. I'd rather use adaptors on the perfect set of wheels if needed.
-
Sorry Jay I'm going to agree with Lewis, 4x100-5x130 is one of the most common adaptors. people have been running them for years!
p.s. cookie cutters are grim. waaay too 'retro' for a mk2.
-
i think they will look nice if there deep and the car is lowww

Hey Joe not saying you can't do it! Like I've said you can do what you like, but I'm outlining the proper way of doing it by VR6 five stud conversion. If adaptors are all good with you, thats fine run them I'm not a fan for reasons all ready outlined simples!
I'll stick with mmmmmmmm cookie cutters
Forget anything I've written its all bollocks and really doesn't count for sh!t! :smiley:

they are a nice wheel for the mk2..
