need to stress dont try this... thats crazy

 

i think the safest route if dong hub conversion to 5x100 and then using 5x100 spacers to 5x112

can be done actually.

 

AAT do a 2 peice spacer/adapter to go from 4x100 to 5x112.

 

don't ask me to explain, took me a while to get my head around it, but it's obvious when you see how it's been done.

yeah redrilling is much safer than adapters anyway but normally it cant be done as 130 to 100 is the most common swap and a 100 hub isnt big enough. tbh if the adapters were steel then running two would be no problem at all its just not the done thing!
