    Feeler - Borbet A3 3piece forged 16x8,0 ET20 5x120

    Have a set of Borbet A3 rims, true 3piece FORGED.

    they are 16x8,0 ET20 5x120....

    Planing to restore them, need to make new center caps and stuf...

    But the question is - refurbish them as 5x120 or fill and redrill to 4x100.......

    Gimmi some advice, guys!

    Like this but 2inch lips and 5x120

    Go 3" lip and 4x100. A final size of 16x9 et8 would be absolutely perfect.

    You WOULD post these up when I'm refinishing my other set of 17" A's...

        Then the lips have to be new aftermarket...

        But the thing why I'm asking is that I found that there are 3 - 4 sets of 4x100 bot NONE 5x120, so it made me think if I should really redrill them...

              It would be a ridiculous waste to redrill these. Post them on S14 and they'll sell for a good price.

                        Holy shit these are orgasmic. A's are basically my favorite wheel and I've never seen splits before.

                            lmao.
                            if these were 4x100 they would be gone like MITT.

                              I would keep them 5x120. I wouldnt be able to bring myself to redrill a nice set of wheels like this. You can still fit them with 18mm adapters(in stock width) but you'd need camber plates and a mild flare up front
