| Where can I order the 5 lug rotors i need to get newer style porsche rims on my ghia?? Do I need to change my rear drums to rotors as well?? Do they make adapter plates so I dont have to change all of these things? If so, who sells them? What else needs to be done on an otherwise stock ghia to run this setup?? thanks for the replies |

Hi,
I got mine from Bill & Steve's VW parts 562-923-3251. You do not have to use rotors on the rear. I bought the front rotors and rear drums drilled for the Porsche pattern. I did not run spacers in the rear because of the tire size I was running (195/60's) If you use adapters the tires may rub, depending on if your car is lowered and your tire size. Check it out you may be able to get away with using adapters, ask the guy's at Bill & Steve's. You just don't have as much room in a Karmann Ghia to spare when it comes to tire and rim selection.

Quite a few advertisers have them listed in their ads in Hot VW's and VW Trends for a decent price. Some even have them drilled just for the Porsche pattern (not re-drills) and some have the re-drills.
Good Luck!
