Wheel adapters?

Post by uninterestingnobody »

Hey guys. I was ondering if anybody here has purchased or looked
into buying a set of wheel adapters for our cars. I found a place
that will make them for our 4 x 110 cars and accept 4 x 100 rims,
allowing us to throw just about any rim ever made on our cars. They
cost 140.00, are made of billet aluminum and seem to be of fantastic
quality, plus they are a non permanent mod, so you could return your
car to stock for a show or when you want it to be all original. Just
wondering what you guys thougt.

Do you happen to have a website for all of us to look at? I am sure
that some members may be interested.

> It kicks the rim out 1.3 inches. Here is the ebay auction I got the info from. Just e-mail the seller, they make all the adapters and are happy to do custom jobs, but said that the ones we would need to have our cars accept 4X100 rims are in stock and a common one, so they will ship next day. I think I am going to order a set soon, then I can put just about any rim on the Sedan!

Just a note of caution, different rims = more weight, and more weight means slower going down the road.  10in aluminum rims are lighter than the steel ones by about 3 pounds.  Total can mean as much as 12 pounds of un-sprung weight off the car.  This makes it faster.
