Title: need to borrow an adapter!
Post by: dellenty69 on 23 October 2011, 22:28

just got my 1st, OEM audi r8 rear wheel, and i want to put it on with no tire to see what kind of poke i will have. and just make sure its ok on the car before i spend out on another wheel AND adapters AND tires... (this is sounding very expensive now)

so anybody got a 5x100 to 5x112 25mm adapter i could borrow for a few days

i know its a strange request, but you have to ask to find out!

regards
james

behave your self! 11j, et50 with 15mm or 20mm adapters will be fine, im only on coilovers so may have to raise it a little lol but il get the arches rolled a little before the back end gets re-painted.

standard tire size for these are 295-35-19 lmao! il be using some 245/255 with a little bit of luck. these wheels aint cheap tho, so it will be after xmas!

The problem you going to get is clearing the shock, 11j is going to be tight.
