Later bus stud to Wide 5 adaptors?? Can you

[71Dormobile]

OK my van has the later style narrow 5 wheels but I like the earlier style pattern and alloys.
Had some Flat 4 BRMS on my bug and loved em... Can I convert over for the bus without any probs with arch clearence or safety issues anyone know.....

Cheers

You can buy BRM's in the 112 PCD as well?

Yeah but really like W5 look on a bay want to go this way or how about SA Sprintstars?

I have 112 pcd discs (late bay) on the front of my 68 bay then refitted adaptors to run with my 356 rims, see my gallery for pics. It works , just might be tight on the rear ( mine still 205) with the offset of a BRM?

Looks great, anyone used adapters and SA's want to know if there would be any issues, don't want to do body work mods etc shaving arches etc.....

if it helps my rims are 5.5" wide with 185 65 15 tyres. think the SA are 4.5", so should have a bit to play with

Yeah these are the ones I looked at on VZI chap is just up the road from me although think there advertised as 5.5 j. Thought they only came 4.5 or 5J ?
Not sure what size pcd j all refers to honest so what would I ideally want on the bay if I were fitting laters style narrow 5 to early style wide 5 adaptors and didn't want the hassle of adaptin the arches to allow the room etc.
