i have a chance to get some 18 inch tsw snettertons from my fathers garage from a wrecked car..

the bolt pattern is correct but the problem lies in the hole in the center to center the rim on the hub. The hole on the rim is to small say by 2mm total. What would have to be done to the rim to get the hole enlarged to fit over

this spot....

so basically what im saying is the bore hole on the rim is smaller than the 66.2mm hub of the vehicle not permitting me to sit the rim flush to the rotor face... can this be addressed and solved or am i up caca's creek.

 

Get a 2mm or 5mm spacer. Dont cut that center bore.

 

ok .. so that would push the wheel hub farther from the hub on the vehicle... am i correct? Would i need some type of ring to center the wheel? or i would assume the lugnuts once tightened would center the wheel...
How is the ring on the hub of the vehicle... would a 5 mm spacer push the rim out enough to clear?

 

Are you sure there is not a hubcentric ring in the wheel?? Most aftermarket wheels are around 73mm.

 

im not sure. when i look at it which was a while ago i could have sworn it was the rim itself that was that small of a bore... but i could be wrong, ill have to check. Say it is the rim though is there anything i can do..

 

Moved by special request...
