Price of adaptors and machining?

Post by aulday »

If I were to get my hands on a set of 18" AMG alloys, which have a big enough centre bore. I know I'd have to extend the bolts, which costs £50.

But does anyone know the price of spacers, and having the lug holes machined out to 14mm??

I take it that's all I'd need to do?

thanks!

I haven't found any yet. I've got a reasonably good idea of the J and ET range I can have. It's just those extra costs I need to factor in.

thanks :)

well judging by the large amount of people that do it I dont think it will. it's not lowered either.

I might get something else but it's an option.
