Redrilling Style 32s

[exhaust]

I love the look of Style 32s on E30s and want to start looking for a set. I see people always fill and drill Style 5s / RSs but they do have the caps.

Has anyone had success with redrilling normal wheels? I'd assume they would need a refinish after the drill.

What size spacers would I have to run to make them work? I'm believe the specs are them are:

17x8 et20
17x9 et26
74.1 hub

i dont thing it will look that good. since you dont have the caps, the redrill wont look that nice. but thats up to you and whoever makes the redrilling.

I agree, not good!

It would be hard to fill and then machine it back so it matches, due to material differences/welding. Not saying it couldnt be done but it would be alot of work.

I also like the look of style 32's on our cars but adapters would be a much better way to go due to the design of the wheel

Makes sense, I didn't think of the different materials being used. It sounds like I would need to run this by a shop and see what they think.

I've almost pulled the trigger on adapters a few times. Thing is I'm worried that the offset would give me a lot of wheel poke because of the offset.
