Hi - I have a set of alloy wheels from a Passat. They are 7 spoke 7x15 ET 45 wheels. Would any list members who have had this type of wheel bored out to 65.5mm (2.618 inches) for a 2WD vanagon please contact me by pmail. I am concerned about the amount of metal that would be removed when these wheels are bored. Details of how your wheels were bored - straight, tapered, whatever - are appreciated. Has anyone had a problem with modified wheels cracking or otherwise failing in a way that might indicate that too much metal was removed when the wheels were bored out? Thanks Ron 84 Westy.
