Track guys, who sells a 4x00 wide 5 adapter?

[JeremyE30autox]

As the title says I have been looking around for a 4x100 wide 5 adapter and so far I have come up with no such product. I am wanting to run 15x10 wheels, but cant seem to find anyone with a 4x100 bolt pattern in the right offset. The 949 racing wheels are great, but would need a massive spacer.

So guys help me out. I have searched and come up empty.

Thanks
Jeremy

diamond racing wheels I think will have your answer, or you can try Bassett racing wheels as well

what is a wide 5 adapter?

Four to five lug adapters sounds rather sketchy to me on a street car and is just asking from trouble on a track car. Do a 5 lug swap or stick with 4x100 wheels.

You dont really know what a wide 5 adapter is then.

I dont mean to bash, it just suprises me since you run with nasa and Im sure people there have them.

I thought diamond could only do a steel one and that means some weight. Is that where you guys got yours?

That condor car is so rad. Does the wide 5 bolt pattern have something to do with old air cooled VWs?

No it is really more of a racing wheel thing than anything. Its not solely based off any one car.

damn...you're going to run the same tires that I ran on my late model stock car. We ran 15x10's with a 4" backspace.

I've only ever seen a 5 on 5 to wide 5 adapter, those 4x100 adapters must be a custom job?

Yeah they are custom for sure. Just trying to get in touch with someone who can make them.

Plan is 15x10 with Hoosier A6 275/35/15. It might hold the ground

A good local machine shop should have the ability to make you some nice adapters. I would check with silence (GRM e30) and see what type of aluminum they used and what thickness.

For those that don't know ths is a wide-5 adapter:


Lets you run lots of different brands, sizes, diameter, widths and offsets once you have the adapter for your car.

Here's a pair of Real's 4x100 15x10 with 275/35's:



As far as buying the adpters I'd recommend the following:
Real Racing Wheels
Keizer Aluminum Wheels
kodiak Motorsports
Bassett Racing Wheel

I'd prefer Real or Keizer personally although the Kondor GRM car you mention is running Bassetts: http://www.bassettwheel.com/wide_five_light.html

Real, Keizer and Kodiak can all make custom sized aluminum standard wheels to suit.

Thanks. There is a couple on that list that I havent tried. I will look into those

word - i'm intrigued!

we ran the wide five rim because the hub was a lot lighter than the standard 5x5....made of magne$ium.
