ive found some here n there that are similar but im lookin for the ones that are just one solid piece like the ones above...

 

[loanaccordr23]

what i meant by one solid piece is there is no design or cut outs in the rims

ive seen them on a 5th gen just recently but the guy did a PCD conversion. apparently they are big with the euro vehicles but first time ive seen them done with a honda. He had to go from 4x114 to 5x112 just to fit those

going to have to factor in the conversion spacers due to this...unless there are some replicas in 114.3...

pretty safe to say there arent any reps in 4 lug, since there arent any rims for 4by cars

 

[nyknick1015]

well you can use spacers but apparently this guy didnt use spacers, he redrilled his hub and rotors to 5x112 just to fit legit AMG wheels

 

[ryan s]

thats taking a bit of material off the rotor hat

 

[nyknick1015]

yep... apparently its big in the euro scene...

i asked him and i was looking it up and this is pretty much how the hub looks

 

[ryan s]

id feel more comfortable doing it to 5 lug rotors since you could just shift all the holes so they're "centered" between the old ones. those 2 "slotted" holes in a 4 lug rotor to 5 lug studs makes me skurred...
