    Re-drilling in PNW

    I'm mulling over grabbing (yet antoher) set of old-school wheels. Problem is, they are in a 4x114.3 bolt pattern. They do have flat backs, re-drill-friendly hubs and center-caps that cover the lug area so they shouldn't be too difficult to do, and do well. Problem is I've never had this sort of thing done...

    Any ideas on where this could be done and for what sort of price in the PNW, and more specifically in western WA?

    You could drill them to be multilug fitment, more shops might be inclined to do that vs fill and drill.

        That's what I was thinking, just drill, not plug...
