hi folks i have 4 x 17inch multihole alloys that i thought
i would fit onto my e36 .Trouble is i had a bad experience a few years ago with a rover 600 with the bearing colapsing I use a local engineering company to make me adapters from four to five stud they were made from alluminium but before i go to that bother are these type of wheels just a bit of stran on the bearings Regards Brian |

Hey mate,
To be honest only time you will get problems with wheel bairns and alloy wheels is if you run massive spacers like 50mm things or somthing! It sound to me like your Rovers wheel bairn was proberly on its way out anyway! I know many people including myself at one point that ran hubcentric 4stud to 5stud conversion spacers on a previous car and never had any problems. Multi fit alloys wont cause any problems what so ever mate. I had E46 M3 19" wheels on my E36 M-Sport mate and the caused no problems, And these wheels are massive lol Edited by RoddyE36Mtec |

Thanks mate appreciated thats a stuning looking motor if
thats yours they just never seem to date .Well with your advice ill go for it to be honest the my wee boston green coupe e36 will look great with them on im sure .Just another question the guy as i said, made the spacers out of alluminium but do you think thats the best material to use ? I search google to see if i could buy a conversion adapter from 5 to four but no joy if you no of any manufacturer please let me know Regards Brian |

Not a problem buddy.
Yeah that is my car alot of time and money has went in to building her, My build thread is a the next one down from this i think have a little look over it im sure you will like whats been done! If you go on google and type in hubcentric wheel adaptors mate, You should be able to find a list of all the PCD adaptions that they do and is possible. Some arent possible as the holes are to close together to adapt but you will get all the info you need from the net and if not, a company that supply's then should be able to give you any info you are looking for about them! Roddy. |

Hi Brian, I'm in Perth too so give me a shout if you need help with anything E36 wise. I've got an Avus blue one that you might have seen about.
