Buy new uniform thickness blank rotors and get them drilled for 5 x 130 PCD

I do know Sherman has them
At Valla they were about $100 per drum + $85 for drilling and studding

I am sure others in Melbourne do it - but count on $750is for all for wheels
Futue te ipsum!!!

Hey Hey Vice,

The stud pattern for Fuchs - 130 x 5

The offset for Fuchs rims varies -

Original Fuchs
15 x 6 - 36mm
15 x 5.5 - 42mm
15 x 4.5 - 42mm

Flat 4 replica Fuchs
15 x 5.5 - 45mm
15 x 4.5 - 45mm

The higher the offset, the closer the wheel sits to the shock tower, eg: 42mm
The lower the offset, the closer the wheel sits to the guard, eg: 36mm.
