supra dan Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 i was looking on ebay for wheels for my sons car and i spotted these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290554066925&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT i did think this guy was an idiot so i sent him a question on how you adjust the pcd. this was his reply : "Where the bolts go into to tighten the wheels , they have an offset swivel,fits most 5 stud cars" anyone heard of this before? is he talking about wobble bolts? or am i right and hes a numpty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephendjb Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Yeah I've got them on a set of TSW black ice alloys it works the same way the suspension is adjusted with an off centre hole drilled into a rotating mount I'll get a pic later as I'm messing about with a wheel at the moment.

Stephendjb Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 You just twist them round, the lines equate to certain pcd's and you simply line them all up the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephendjb Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Fine for normal use but I wouldn't hammer them round the Nurbergring for too many laps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Genius, but not that strong I would imagine? H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephendjb Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I think the biggest draw back with the system is the thickness of the wheel around the bolts to create the strength. The actual discs that rotate round are made from stainless steel I think. I'll get a pic from the front later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
