    Fill n drill question

    Just wanted to know if anyone has tried this. I know you'll all say just 5 lug it but I wanted to convert the M-systems wheel (e34 m5) to a 4x100. Has anyone tried this? If so can anyone post a pic? Greatly appreciated.

    I would say filling an drilling M-systems may be harder due to the shape. I'm not saying it's impossible, just that it may be hard to do. Also, those are pretty nice rims, I would object to such a procedure.

      Have you seen M-Systems? Personally I don't see how you're going to butcher them up if you've seen the centers of them.

        Thanks. Just wondering if it was possible or if it was ever done. :)

          Looks like you can do it




          I don't see any reason, other than the purist reason, that you can't.

            This is all that matters.

            It's like, drilling a fresh front bumper for a license plate.....

              That would be a lot of drilling, shaving and cutting of the centers. They're not too common but you can get throwing star reps. I've seen them for sale on this forum.

                real > reps in this case. On the replicas, the throwing stars all face the same direction so they are backwards on one side of the car. It looks really weird.

                        Better yet...send your rotors and hubs to Ari @DtmFiberkz/RaceWarz/EuroStopz/DecalKingz, or whatever his name is this week, and have him do the fill and drill.
                        I hear he's most excellent in these things and he guarantees its mad tyte approved.
