    It's called 'inserting'. You make an 'insert' to fit in the holes.

    Matt got those borbets drilled for $80 as they were already 4x108 but I'm talking about this



    I also get the centre bore reduced to 57.1 so I suppose it's less than 400 for just the fill and inserts....

    That was through Joe at WheelWorx. Was only a redrill, not fill and drill. Would have been fine on the RS' I was going to buy.

    Bumping this thread again - I was very rough with my prices but I'd like to know some more accurate cost figures from shops. eBay auction ends really soon hahaha.

    Tempe Tyres charged me $150 for changing the bbs for the audi from 114.3 to 112. Redrilling 4 wheels and supplying new chrome bolts.

    No pics, but they look standard. 114.3 to 112 is only 2.1mm and the audi bolts are thicker. Its just a newly chamfered better located hole.

    Oh yeah they supplied hub centric rings for that price too!

    The only complaint I have is the casual way they chucked the wheels to one side and told me to come back tomorrow. I was very reluctant to leave em, but I was back there first thing and hassled em until they reappeared freshly drilled.
