Re: 4x100 to 5x112 adapters?? (FiveAinOne)

I don't think they exist, the thing is both bolt patterns are pretty close there is not enough material to have both bolt patterns on the adapter. For Porsche wheels it's another story since the offset and lug pattern is different from VWs you have to run a fairly thick spacer and since the bolt pattern is 5x130 there's more material to work with
Hope this makes sense
Panic: Porsche wheels are 5x130 not 5x112. newer Passats and Audis are 5x112

$180's pretty cheap.. how much was converting to plus suspension again? I thought someone said it was cheaper to convert instead of adatper..
edit- oops nvm, need two sets.. so it'll be $370.. ouch.

I think bmw uses a 5x112 bolt pattern as well...I heard that h&r was coming out w/ a vw/bmw adapter. This is all hearsay at this point,so don't crawl my ass if I'm wrong.
Go to h&r's website and check.

Even if you convert to plus you'll still only have 5x100. 5x112 is an Audi pattern I believe and BMW comes in at 5x120. Not 100% on this but the ropes around my neck and I'm ready to jump.
