    Right !

    I have 18mm adapters but I'd like thinner spacers to poke a little less.

    Sorry, if thread confused..

    Do you think these hubs can be safely redrilled 5x130 ? Do they have enough meat ?

    Do you think a standard E30 disc can go over them ?


    I'd like to run 5x130 hubs rear. I wanted custom hubs but since those can maybe be redrilled to 5x130 I'd only have to shim my calipers brackets 2.5mm each side and drill my discs too.
