Title: Who's running Porsche PCD adapters?
Post by: Lewy on 20 July 2011, 23:18

Right, it goes like this.

I'm now sporting Porsche 16" wheels on my Mk2, and the adapter bolts up to the Mk2 hub perfectly, but to bolt the wheel to the adapter I am using the original VW radiused bolts.  Is that what everyone else is running, or are they using FK's, as they come with the bolts, unlike the expensive H&R's  :rolleyes:.

Cheers in advance.

hi mate

had FK ones on mine for the last 3 years

they are great, they come with the bolts that bolt the adapter to the hub. but these bolts are very easy rounded (sh!t quality)  iv had to drill one out in past and now another so i intend to replace with better bolts

the VW ones are fine to use on the actual Porker rim to Adapter because VW / Porsche are the same type bolts. I run my original VW wheel bolts

hope this helps

Thought as much, and after the first outing to Santa Pod the other week nothing had budged, just didn't seem correct with the M14 holes.

As I say mine have been on 3 years car is a daily and all is well. I just found the bolts FK supplied to fit the adapters to the hubs are of poor quality..
