    I'd say go with spacers, I am fairly certain FK makes a 4x100 to 5x130 adapter. With the high offset of the Porsche wheels you have plenty of room for spacer width too. Only then will you be able to eat a 130mm cock.

    edit: how much are you asking?

      I believe there's a guy on e30tech, that put Porsche wheels on his e30. He used a 60mm spacer adapter that converted his 4x100 to 5x130.

          you could try vw whoretex as well - the 4x100 clowns there run 'em with spacers . . .

              Ok, did some checking.

              H+R offers these things in a 4x100(57.1 centerbore) to 5x130(71.6 centerbore)adaptor with a total spacer width of 25mm.

              Hmm, that means that with the spacer you're talking about an offset of 18. I wonder what that would work on....


























              Maybe an E30 or 2002???

                I realize Techno Toy Tuning is a Toyota site, but perhaps someone will find their spacers and adapters useful. I wanted to try the adapters for my old Subaru which had an obscure bolt pattern (4x140), but I sold the car before I got the chance. I know that company has a reputation for quality though.

                  Clearly they do. I guess those types of manufacturers (fikse, ccw) just don't list those custom sizes on their websites.

                    Probably me you're talking about, i'm running a 40mm spacer, the wheels i'm using are a 52mm offset. Depending on the look you're going for, i'd stick to around a 35mm spacer. Mine sit in a little too much for my taste with a combined offset of +12mm.

                          ok well those guys suck. i called them up and got some girl who had no idea what i wanted and told me they couldnt make them. so i continued my search and found a company called grossman tuning and ended up getting a sick adapter for my porsche wheels for my e30 and they were cheap compared to what ive seen around. only 285 shipped and paypaled. ask for brad and tell him bogan sent you for the adapters. again thats grossmantuning.com
