June 9th, 2018 04:44 AM #3hindi ko napicturan bro bago ilagay, ang paliwanag sa akin ay ifi-fill in daw nila ung butas ng alloy, patitigasin tsaka bubutasan ayon sa pattern na akma sa pcd na kailangan, nakita ko bago isalpak ay may parang metal insert ung mga butas...

June 9th, 2018 09:33 AM #4i have seen alloys, with two sets of bolt holes. Originally Posted by Solitaire

perhaps this is the better thing to do, instead of filling it in and re-holing.
the shop should be able to guide you, kung puede at kung safe.
good luck.

June 9th, 2018 09:54 AM #5The aesthetic value of your car is not worth compromising your safety or the safety of the other motorists. Use the correct bolt pattern. As a matter of fact, use only JIS, CSA or US DOT standard wheels. If you can, use the same offset and same width to maintain the same scrub radius. Negative offsets shortens the life of the bearings or outer bearings and shortens the service life of the steering components in addition to a less stable vehicle handling.

June 9th, 2018 12:44 PM #6I agree with the posts above. It's NOT safe...
But I've seen/done/used ones before...
So I guess it all depends on your budget and luck.
***I've tried punching new holes to the wheels... And changing the holes of the car. Student pa ako noon, have to play with the budget I have.

June 9th, 2018 08:30 AM #9pcd converter seems safe enough for everyday use, provided he does something like 1000k KM check. plus use products like threadlock. pero risky nga yung gusto ni TS. parang mas matibay pa ang welded eh. Originally Posted by TheUninvited

June 9th, 2018 04:44 PM #10Don't. Your wheels are the things connecting your car to the road. Do you really wanna risk it? Originally Posted by Solitaire
