Any idea where I can find an adapter to go from 114 to 112 that would be thinner? All of the ones I can find online are 1.25" thick.

Here's a 15mm, you can find 20mm and 25mm there also.

Those are just spacers, not adapters. The only conversion adapters I could find on their site were for 5x100 to 5x114.3.

Use wobble lugs. No real need for adapters. I've heard of people being able to run 112mm wheels on cars with a 114.3 bolt pattern with no problems.

I'd still use wobble nuts.

Just make damn sure you have properly sized hub rings to make sure the wheels are perfectly centered on the hubs.

okay, i checked out "just for wheels" and they have an application guide that will match your car to your wheels to determine the proper ring size. It doesn't tell me the numbers, just lets me buy them.

At this point I think I'm going to go with the rings and wobblers.

In the future (hopefully near) I want to add some spacers to the front and back to get the wheels to flush.

So my next question is, is there a spacer out there that will also compensate for the ring and kill two birds with one stone?

That would have to be custom milled, as there are just too many different hub bore sizes and spacer thicknesses to mass produce the wide variety of options.

Nf210's are on the wishlist. Probably have to wait a month or two. I've already dropped well over a grand since I bought it...the account is pretty lean right now.
