« on: 04 March 2011, 12:15 »
hey guys, whats the easiest way to widen a centre bore for a set of alloys?

getting a set of corsa alloys to fit to the golf and need to increase the bore from 56.5 to 57.1,
also the offet range on the golf is 35 to 42 and the alloys are a 45, what size spacer would i need??

A local machine shop should be able to machine them out.

at the cost they will charge for doing that, you will be better off buying something that fits
