Default Convert bolt patterns? Is this possable

My freind has a RX7 and doing a LS1 swap, he really like Zo6 rims. So I feel very dumb and didnt want to even make this thread since I know what the answer is going to be.

But is there anyway possable to change a botlon pattern? Is there any places that will do a custom bolt patern so it can fit on a RX7?


I didnt want to post this but I asked for him, so dont flame me.

Wheel adapters. The hard part is finding them in the bolt patterns you want.

For example: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Trans...QQcmdZViewItem

Yes, they're safe to run if built and installed properly. Minimum thickness you'll find is probably 3/4" and they'll range up to 2"+. If a thickness in that range will work then get all the pertinent measurements on both patterns (eg, hub bore diameter, wheel stud diameter, bolt circle, etc) and contact Andris at www.skulte.com for a custom wheel adapter set. I'm not familiar with RX7, but in general you will want a hubcentric and wheelcentric adapter if possible.

Feel free to PM me if you have any specific questions, I'll do my best to help.
