skinnyman9000 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Whats needed? I ask because i have a 1990 valver and my wheels that need fitting are 5x100 VR fitment. I was going to get some adapters, but at £150 plus shipping (and more wheel bolts) it might end up being cheaper to just convert the car to 5 stud. So, whats needed?

VR6 rear Rotors Front VR6 Brake lines VR6 Sway Bar and End Links VR6 Control Arms and bushings VR6 Drive Shafts and bolts for tranny VR6 Steering Knuckles VR6 Bearings VR6 Tie Rod Ends VR6 Front Rotors VR6 Spindles VR6 Hubs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkie 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Man i was trying to inspire him with confidence but you just shot that out of the window...... :scratch: Is that the list to just make it 5 x 100 or to make it widetrack too, dumb q i know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chimo 0 Posted July 1, 2008 I think to do it right you have to go widetrack. .. I was going to do the swap w/ the 16v, but time has gotten shorter for us in england. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Question is though, am i going to be ok with 8's all round PLUS the width of the adapters? I guess i need to know the ET to know that, hmmmm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its more of the time constraints now, on tues im on hols until 25th, and i need to get it sorted for E38 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnyman9000 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Well adapters wont work due to the offset of 36 on the wheels, so the fronts will be too wide, christ this is getting complicated. I might just sell them and buy some wheels that actually bloody fit! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chimo 0 Posted July 4, 2008 sucks... we're leaving england early, and I bought a set of wheels for the corrado at home... trouble is that the wheels are brutally expensive to ship home so I was planning on installing them onto the 16V... hence the info for the bolt swap... I'm on the same boat, not enough time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpoid 0 Posted July 5, 2008 I'm planning on doing mine too, i was going by this thread which made it look easy ........ viewtopic.php?p=657169#657169 I was going to get new rotors and bearings at the same time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnyman9000 0 Posted July 5, 2008 Im getting conflicting opinions because im now told that 8's with ET16 will be fine at the front, hmmmm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted July 5, 2008 That's the 'beauty' of asking for info on internet forums i'm afraid :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpoid 0 Posted July 5, 2008 Yeah i'm getting confusious. In regards to making it wide track your offset will be different. Not sure that with those parts listed that the rear would be different though ?? Those pics in the link that i posted make it look easy, obviously worked for him ! Bahn Brenner do a 5 stud conversion kit for G60's too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
