hey guys,

i just bought really nice rims that are 4x114 and they don't fit my car as my car is 4x100. so does anyone know where i could get it re drilled and how much it will cost, I'm in Brisbane.

that sounds more like for drilling out the centre hole. i don't know how you'd redo the 4 stud holes in a smaller PCD - that is the diameter of the circle made by the four holes. The circumference of the circle goes through the centre of the stud holes. The only way i can see it working is by filling the old holes which sounds dodgy, or drilling a new set of holes, which would probably look kinda yuck.

i was told, by a wheel shop, that i think theyre called ozzy in lawnton can?, $40a rim, for new holes, dont know what they do to the old ones. but that was just a salesman probably trying to make me buy rims.

Only real option is to drill new holes rotated by 45 degrees, like most 4 stud multi fit rims.

cant you just get spacers?

You would still need a bolt on spacer that has two different PCD, would anyone even manufacture that?
