I wanna say 4x100>5x112 but not entirely sure. Just look in the classifieds for adaptors, there's usually a few sets going

I thought 5x120 was bmw?

I'd get some 25mm adaptors. if they are too wide have them milled down like ive done.

Yep, sorry, my bad! I have both Porker and Bimmer rims, so getting muddled! They are indeed 5x130. Sorry.  :lipsrsealed:

Porsche are definately 130

I have had 6j 7.5j and 8j porsche wheels on mine with different tyre sizes, stretched and normal.

25mm adapters work well with all the above.

6j all round at the moment with no tyre stretch as the roads are sh!t :)
