Hey, i'm just wondering if wheel adaptors like these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche- ... enameZWD2V are legal to use in QLD. or if it's possible to get them engineered?

does anyone run anything similar to these? legal or illegal?

Cheers, Cameron

In SA, no...

they're spacers, and spacers are illegal

and potentially dangerous

this has been discussed recently, the verdict is: don't bother, buy a set of spaced drums instead.

the main reason i am interested in these is to change the PCD, because i could get a set of these made cheaper than re-drilling a set of wheels.

yeah, not sure about legality in Qld myself, not the absolute safest option I wouldn't have thought, but I suppose not as bad as some.

That type are commonly used on 4WDs with BIG wheels.
I saw some at Big Balls Motorsport (there's a name!!) :lol:

Mr Salesman said "noooooooooo, not road legal".
Were being sold under sign `for off-road use only'..... yeah, right.... nudge nudge, :wink: :wink:

Na-uh, not in QLD. I don't think that you could get them engineered BUT I don't know for sure. You may want to go and talk to an engineer and find out but I highly doubt that he would sign off on something like that.
