        Wobble bolts are big in the Dubber scene, and I've heard of a lot of people using them with no problems.

              4x100 to 4x108 is too large a difference for wobble bolts I believe.

              Personally I'd just rather run adapters.

                Adaptors are the only way, wobble bolts cant make up that much of a difference.

                    You can not use wobble bolts to go from 4x100 to 4x108. I have personaly tried this. It will nto work....you only get 2.5 play with wobble bolts, wobble bolts will nto go from 4x100 to 4x108

                          and just out of curiosity what use would a grinder make? im not seeing how using a grinder on anything would make this situation applicable.....well i mean unless u just wanted to see sparks.

                            Grind the diameter of the bolt's shoulder, Nancy. 100% safe.

                              but in this situation it wouldnt make enough play to reach to a 4x108 bolt pattern, thats why i said it wouldnt work. when i said it didnt work i didnt just slap some wobble botls in there n was done with it...i fucked with them a bit, they couldnt be ground down anymore and still came up short....Nancy
