You can get hub adaptors from Mk Motorsport for about Ł700 .
I will be supplying centre on there own so you can get your own rims or as complete wheels , I have just got hold of two sets of 16"x 9j rims to fit two sets up , I have also found a company that will supply me 18" rims for half what image want ,or you can find your own inner/outer rims ( maybe cheaper than I can ?) or they can be 4 stud if you want to remove the cost of adaptors , the centres whether there centre locks or 4 stud will be far less than the others on the market . I aint going to do a massive amount of these , and I am only doing them coz I want two sets and refuse to pay Ł400 a centre .

That's impressive ...I all so looked at this route when sourcing mine... The problem I had is a machinist who could make me the centres could not offer a guarantee with with them if anything went wrong ... Where's as a wheel company can and supply you with the right settings as supposed to make a set and guessing ya own torque figurs up .
What do you offer ?

Hi mate I've not fitted them yet mate... But they shouldn't rub at all... Because I've had Image copy a TSW Hock in size and proportion and the TSW never rubbed or scraped mate with 205/40/17
Are yours catching ?

They are catching the top of the arches,i am just working out the best way round it as i don't really want to get them rolled and cut the bodykit.I may look at havin some new centeres made with a bigger offset.They look awesome on buy the way.

If they are catching the top of the arches the. The offset is wrong .. Or what size tyres are you using cos with the hocks the fitted perfect .. So I've had the same size etc made into the billet 85's.... What size is your centre lock nuts as they look a tad smaller than mine .. 90mm mine is iirc
