[QUOTE="lobus, post: 21829, member: 10"] I'm not a fan of mucking about with the hubs, particularly the front ones. I can't see how they can be as strong if you are drilling bits out of them. Even if the other holes are welded up. The thought of a fractured hub and no steering sends shivers through me timbers. Murphy's law is always going to apply in that one IMO. If you are set on Porsche wheels why don't you investigate fitting Porsche hubs as well? Otherwise replicas might not look 100% but engineering wise you will be sitting over the real deal. What about all the other wheels available with the VW stud patterns? Sorry to put a dampener on this thread but I don't mess with steering or brakes (says he who likes to slam!). The problem is if either of these fail you are a passenger not the pilot. David [/QUOTE]
