I picked up a set of BBS RS064s for my MKII and im lookin for a reputable machine shop on the east side of the city that can take a look at them to see if they are able to be re-drilled… they are 5x114.3 and i need them re-drilled to 5x100. the hubs are flat so its feasible, its right on the edge of either being able to or not being able to do and i need to have them looked at and measured to sure… any suggestions on who to try?

wheels in question -

Torch the entire car. Wrong wheel drive and worse wheels.

Let the east side city folks steal it.

Call Naylor’s in Belle Vernon. It’s (way) south of town, but they _might_ be able to fill and drill.
