I'm curious to see if anyone can provide a picture that shows 4x110 wheels installed on their 1st gen with 4x114 bolt pattern using an adapter plate. I've been told it adds about 1" approximately in terms of how far the wheels stick out. If anyone can provide one or a few, I'd appreciate it!

 

I've never known of anyone putting 110mm wheels on their 114mm axels. I've seen the other way around.

 

It's funny... I still get an offended twinge when people assume that "1st Gen" only includes "FBs". I guess I'm feeling the "SA minority blues," lol.

 

did I hear a Blue SA?

Oh nevermind lol

 

Most wheels that are available in 4x110 are available in more common bolt patterns such as 4x114.3, so there would be little need for adapters. Unless you meant 4x114.3 wheels on a 4x110 car. That would be different.

 

I know SA's are included of course! Promise

 

True, however at the time I have 4x110 wheels that I'd like to use on my car which has 4x114.

 

In that case it entirely depends on the wheels width and offset. A 7 inch wheel with a +20 offset sits nearly flush with the fender. If your wheel was say a 7 inch wide +40 offset then the 1 inch thick adapter would be nearly perfect. What are the specs of your rim?

 

15x7 +10

 

Get a set of GSL axles, use press in studs, and re-drill the brake rotors.

A 1in spacer on a +10 offset wheel is going to eat fender without some sort of flare.

I'd rather not revert back to GSL after upgrading to SE suspension. Plus that's some $$ to do it all.

 

With +10 offset and no flares, would stick out too much. Oh well
