So I'm looking at some BBS wheels, 5x114 that I would normally use conical seat wobble bolts to run on my 5x112 mk5. However the wheels use a "mag nut" style lug nut to mount on the Mitsubishi they come on from the factory. What would be my best option? Can I get the bolt holes on the wheel machined to a taper so the wobble bolts would work? Or get them completely re-drilled to 5x112? How successfully can wheels be re-drilled and what is the cost usually?

I'm wondering the same...who locally will fill and re-drill wheels? I also have some 5x114.3 wheels I've been wanting to fit onto a 5x100 application.
Maybe a fab shop will need to weld up the wheels and then another shop drill them? I know locals have had it done, just not sure where!

Greens use to do it I'm not sure if they still do. Probably look like ass though it it's exposed at all.

Mine would be under a center cap, so it would be fine :)
