Corvette wheels + e36: Need adapter help

[SHOoff11]

Looks like custom might be the only way to go, thanks for the advice.

You can get them from FelgenMeister.us, they make wheels, re-drill, and make spacers/adapters.

I know I'm bumping an old ass thread, but after lots of searching I still haven't found a definite answer on which adapters I need. From what I've read I need at least a 25mm 5x120 to 5x120.65 adapter for my e46, I'm just not sure where to get them without going custom like the website on the first page.

Adaptec would be my suggestion. They're custom but with going that thick I would want them done right.

So I am trying to do this setup but with the c5 wheels that at 17x9.5 square set up and am debating to just bore out and use them or get adapters? thoughts?

Millions of people use adapters, there fine.

exactly lol

[ChrisVRsix]

sorry guys but adapters are a bad idea in my eyes because I've seen wheels fly off due to the use of adapters. personally i will never use them, and I plan on getting a set of salad shooters myself. I love those wheels

So did you ever end up getting these on? I have a set that I could either keep or well. I got a great deal on them from craigslist. If I sold them, I could get the next set of wheel that I desperately want... Or keep them for future use and save up for the wheels. These will be on a mini btw. I just don't want to go through buying adapters and all that for 4x100 to 5x120.65. Seems like a huge PITA.

I'd love to see some pictures of the wheels on the car!

[VRseXMike]

so whats the difference between that set and these??????

where did u order your adapters?

[TheJakeR]

thank you. and one of them is on...just not the other
the lugs that came with my adapters were too tall to put them on, but they're all on now.

i'll try to get you a closeup pic today. mine aren't chrome like yours though, the faces are machined.

i've heard them called ZRI's, but i believe that name is actually for the ones with exposed lugs. and 170 is a damn good deal.

ZRI it is then

lookin forward to some pics!
