Any suggestions on what is needed to do this, or even whether it can be done? Reason being i have a half price set of Buddy Club P1s that don't seem to wanna sell and rather than wear a loss only to have to fork out again for the same rims i may as well make em fit.
Spacers aren't an option. Basically im just after suggestions of studs with a 5x114.3 PCD that will mate to the 165 axel spline...

Not ideal but im sure if you throw enough money at something it can be solved. Wheels are 42 and should ideally be 39.

I don't know much about that kind of stuff. I mean, i know what it would take and how you would do it, but not much idea about cost. Depending on what i get from this thread and whether or not i can sell the wheels for what i paid for em ($1,000) i guess i will find out when i call round...

Why not have the std hubs re drilled with the 5 x 114 pattern. Rotate each hub 1/5th of a turn so the studs are between previous holes. Then redrill the discs.
