    16" RS wheels off a 930.

    5 x 130mm, gold, staggered......$500. they're local. anything i can do to fit these??
    16x7 and 16x8.

    yeah, they're on craigslist for $500... my jaw about hit the floor when i saw the price. i know theres that one dude on here with the delphin coupe, with the 928 wheels. anyone know what he did? are there hub adapters?

    i just sent the dude an email, asking if he knows offsets. holy crap. this could be a steal.

    im really looking for opinions and ideas. thanks fellas.

      weld and redrill is your best bet. (Proper shops can, in fact, do this without reliability issues)

      Those are hot wheels, and at that price they're amazing.

        ^^ damn, i didnt think of that.
        looks like H&R makes adapters. but 25mm is the smallest.
        i like the fill and re-drill idea. hmmm

          Yeah, screw the adapters. Have them filled and drilled.

              adapters.

              most porsche wheels are really high offset, like +40-50. this makes them ideal for adapters in 20-30mm size, and they can be made all over the place for ~$250-300 for a set of 4 adapters. fill and redrill is harder to find a shop to do the work, and if they are high offset, its pointless b/c you would still have to run spacers. i have run adapters on MANY wheels with no problems at all.

                  i still havnt recieved an email. so i dont know the offsets. im sure they're pretty high though. either way, im prob gonna pick 'em up. i could flip them and make $500 im thinking. it would be hard for me to get rid of them though. they're one of my fav wheels....ever! haha.

                      buy

                      repost on vwvortex's wheel classifieds

                      sell for profit

                      its that simple, my friend ran adapters to 5x130 on his mk3 gti. thats a hot wheel plenty of people drop tons of cash on. mint rs's with proper specs sell as much as 3 grand on there. check it out! 500 is a steal!
