reputable machine shop sacramento (wheel redrilling)
 
anyone have any recommendations? looking at different options (thinking it might be safer to redrill than get an adapter).

Redrill what?

Wheels with one lug pattern rarely have the structure to drill a second.

Have a look at the back of the rim.

there was a small place i went to off Greenback right after the split on the right, dont remember what its called. Looks super sketchy but the guys does extremely good work and i highly recommend him. If i am over that way ill swing by and get the name.

PWW does great work - they're not cheap, but it's worth it. Brought back a set of SSR's from the dead for me.

Not sure on redrills though. Like Bouncer said, the pads on the back of the wheel aren't usually set up for that. You redrill old BBS's that have covers over the lugs and a flat back pad - not sure if it would work with what you picked up.

Are they 5x114 now?

thanks for the heads up aaron. yeah they are currently 114.3. i picked up an adaptor, but was thinking about returning it and getting the wheels redrilled.

I'd run adapters over redrilling, personally, as long as they're bolt-ons.

yeah that looks to be the only option... im just concerned about fitment in the front, as the adapters are also a 15mm spacer... that doesn't leave a lot of room lol
