I guess it all depends on the meat on the back side. There’s a place in NJ, I think their on instagram. With videos of them, drilling, plugging and sleaving wheels. All automated. Cool stuff.

Yes I have seen a few videos as well and that's how I got to this idea lol 😂....It would be cool if flat 4 made some brms like the oem brms details but with the 5x130 bolt patten ..I've see that there are brms with 5x112 bolt pattern so I don't see why the 5x130 wouldn't work ....I've emailed flat4 about this idea and nothing was sent back to me 🤷🏻....... |

Better to change your brakes to 5x205 than screw up your wheels!
