Im after some alloy wheels for my 318 convertible, however all the designs I like are only available in 5 stud fit only.
what do you people think of hub adaptors? what are the pro's and con's of fitting them? Or can i just take the hubs of another BMW, and whats involved in it if i do?
4 stud to 5 stud?????

rchadha, where u from?
a place in sudbury can get hold of them, they are expensive but better would be to get the m3 setup. 4 stud.

Like the look of those zenetti's actually - wanna get 15's though really which seems to be limiting my choices a bit!!
I'm assuming whatever route you take for the 5 stud conversion, the offset needed would be the same as m3?? Which is et???
