widen lug holes..

[akaprince]

anyone know a place where i can get my lug holes widened to fit 14 mm wobble bolts?
lug holes now are designed to fit 12mm studs. but wobbles bolts slip right thru, just doesnt have room to wobble.
thanks and much appreciated, hoping to get these wheels on asap.

You need to get new lug sleeves or lug inserts, as opposed to trying to run wobble bolts. A wider hole is drilled, the new sleeve is pressed in and bam, you now have 5x112. Most competent machine shops should be able to do it. I'd post a link but I don't remember where I bought my sleeves at.

You'll need to get the over-sized insert.

At the minimum you should be using a drill press....

just redrill them. wobbles are a PITA, prone to stripping out (and then you have to pull your whole hub).

i have not used these people, but have heard good things:

Give them a call.

I'm with this guy, you are going to seriously mess something up using a drill.

Also, @Lucidity - Exoplanet is one of the best albums ever made. :thumbsup:
