5x112 fit 5x114.3?

[Diagro]

Hey.

is it possible to fit a set of alloys that are 5x112 fitment to a jap car with 5x114.3?

If so how??

Can't seem to get any good answers from garages around here

Yeah, wobble nuts (bit sketchy) or adapter spacers. Much better just buying the right spec wheels.

Yea been looking for a set in correct spec. But they jump in price and no stock. :/

You'd be better of buying them in 5x114 to begin with. Wobble nuts will set you back £40 and although they work, they are not the most elegant of solutions.

PCD adapters would be about £140 and are a much better. But i would only bother with this if you wanted to space your wheels out.

If yer goign with adapters PLEASE double and triple check their reliability.
Seen some horrendous pics of a GTR with adapters on and the wheels hanging off after a spirited drive. Look like the adapters simply split

what alloys ye looking at ?

I have been looking at these:

There is a set with tyres at my local garage, But in 5x112 fitment.
He wants £500 for them inc a decent set of 225/45/18 tyres.

been looking about for a set in the correct fitment but just cant find some :/

They do look nice in my eyes too.

A decent set of 225/45's is gonna set you back 3-350
Whys he selling them so cheap? Or are they second hand?

They were new from what i could see.
They were bought for someone, but their mind changed and he is stuck with them. hence the low price.

Don't you just hate it when you randomly buy somebody a full set of wheels and they change their mind and leave you stuck with them? Happens all the time.

Wait, what? Seems fishy.

God know.
but as I have seen them and I have the price that's a non issue...

But as I know it's not a good idea to attempt a fit I will leave them to someone else.

Tbf spirited driving in a GTR is a different kettle of fish. Typically they will be absolutely fine. I know plenty of people that drift/race with spacers on and its not really an issue. You're more likely to tear apart a cheap alloy.

I've used wobble nuts before to fit a 4x100 wheel in a 4x98 car, didn't have a single problem.

Would you say that the 5x112 would fit my car then? (if Center bore is a match)

5x112 to 114.3 definitely works with wobble nuts.

Or a cheap spacer!

 

[markweatherill]

Ah, just file the holes out a bit. Then you'll have universal alloys!

I would say yes, just make sure you use the correct hug centric ring
