    allowing 100 pounds for shipping, you could get a set of fk hubcentric etc 5x100 --> 5x112 adapters at whatever width (above 20mm) for less than 600..

    ie. 260 GBP shipped. they're 81 GBP per pair from venom

    With the way the Australia dollar is currently, 260GBP is $615AUD using xe.com

    I think $150 each isn’t a bad price if they are hub centric etc.
    How thin can they make them Alex?

    $150/ea for custom adapters can't really be beaten if done locally. With these things, the cost is in the materials I'd think, with the adapters machined/cut to size using a CNC machine, so cheaping out wouldn't be a really sensible option!
