ok, so it seems i cnat find a easy/cheap way to get my 2.0 4x100 lug patter to become a 5x112 patteren. i have the optong of going from 5x100 to 5x112 tho....... so now im debating the easyst way to make my car into a 5x100 patern car with out, and here is the kicker........... a real 5lug swap forsay.
i dont realy want to deal w/ the wider 5lug contorl arms or the rear beam........ i know im a pain arnt i.......
here is waht im thnking..............
for the rear of the car............
install vr6 aka. 5lug aka 5x100 rotors on the rear, i belive the wheel bearing/spindles are teh same for a 4 and 5 lug car its just the rotor that makes the diffrence. this keeps me w/ a stock rotor i can get any day of the week easy as pie......... and i think they are the saem size as the 4bangers also..... talking early mk3 shit here people......... so correct me if im worng.
for the front.............
i wonder, since i need wheel bearings any how.............. can i just install the 5lug hub into my 4 lug nuckle? i would assume vw uses the same wheel bearing dimention for a 4lug and 5 lug hub. im fairly sure the cv splines are the same also. now if thats all a go then id end up w/ a car that now needs breaks.................. can i simply bolt a vr6 caliper/rotor up and be done at this point? ..........
i would just use all the vr6 crap but A. i dont want longer contorl arms/tie rods and such......... and B. i cant use the vr6 nuckle on a 2.0 contorl arm as the ball joints mount to the arm totaly diffrent. i guess i could cut the end off each contorl arm and weld them together making a highbread contorl arm........... not the end of the world i guess..................
what u guys sugest?.........
thanks
