GA: 740 BBS 16x8 **4x100**

[kylebes1]

I called today and they place that normally does wheel repair for our shop can do a redrill on the 740 16x8 wheels that I have. I have a couple sets if I send them like 12 wheels it would be a little cheaper...

Would you pay $700.00 for great condition 16x8s that are direct fitment?






There are several cars on here that have five lug conversion and these wheels... I think they are BALLIN and period correct.

Is it safe at all to redrill those?

I would be interested if i see the redrill itself. I have seen some shady ones and some quality ones. Will the old holes be filled as well?

x2. I would imagine the prior holes would have to be filled in.

And yes, you would have interest in these if they are done right.

I should have discussed the refilling of the old holes, but I doubt it would make a difference. I will find out.

Its the size of the center bore that makes this a problem. The 4x100 holes are right against the centerbore.

I looked into it extensively. those wheels are sick. If you figure out how to do it (safely) I'm in.

Yea, the guy doing it is taking some extra looks at it. we will see what his experience says.

Looks sketchy.

If this would work out I would be in. With that said, E30's have been around for 20+ years, I think someone would have done/tried it by now. Just a thought.

Just 5 lug swap so you dont end up wheel-less and in a drainage ditch.

someone posted it for me when I was looking into a redrill. I can't claim it as my own. :) It does illustrate the point pretty well.
