We turned about 8 sets before getting it just right!

We even made some that sat behind the discs to use Porsche discs.

My wheels are up for sale!

I was not aware we had released pics of the final kit?

The kits can use studs and genuine Porsche magnesium nuts.

They are threaded, the adaptor is two thin for splined bolts.

Depending on which rims you use we can make them thicker.
