Evening guys,

Basically I have an alloy that I bought in the wrong fitment. It is 4x100 fitment which is like VW fitment but since Ford is 4x108 it doesn't fit and I didn't know this at the time so I am stuck with this alloy, no way of getting rid of it. So is there any way of making it fit by using a hub adaptor that doesn't space the wheel out. As you can guess all the rest of the wheel are 4x108 and are fine but it is just this one I'm wondering if I can get an adaptor and use it otherwise it will continue being a garage ornament...

Cheers.

 

I reckon the only way you'd get it to fit without spacing it would be to re-drill your hub to suit. If it's a fairly new wheel, it'll be much easier to source a 4x108 wheel on its own surely?

 

This type of wheel is obsolete now anyway. My alloys aren't very common at all. Want to make use of this wheel if possible but then that means one hub will be different to the rest?

 

Yup. What wheels are they?

 

Atek 5 spokes

 

Give Rochford Tyres a ring

 

They're discontinued mate so I'm stuffed.

 

There are a couple of companies offering hub adaptors (Pemberton Tyres used to make them, but not sure if they still do) But the very nature of them means that they push the wheel further out.

 

if you are desperate to use this wheel,then get the holes welded up,and redrilled to the correct size. guess it will cost a lot more than buying a new wheel,
