4x100 hub conversion kit

I just saw this and figured I would pass it on.

I have purchased a few things from Woody in the past, and he has a great reputation in the TR7/TR8 world.

I currently have wheel adaptors to go to 4x100 rims, but have had some balancing issues with them. No tire shops around here will balance the tires on the car as other have suggested because it has adaptors.

Now the question is how long till they come out and how much will they be?

What kind of wheels do you have on your car??

Recently I made my own wheel hubs with a 4 X 100 stud pattern on them. They do seem to be smoother running than with the adapters. Getting the 4 x 100 pattern was just one of many reasons why I made them myself. If the Wedge Shop is going to make them then I would suggest having several different models available for different wheel off-sets. Here is a link to my project:

The wheels on my car are 15x6 and made by enkei. I found them on ebay. They were originally on a Miata (I think they were a factory option on a certain model). When I first saw them I was not sure if I liked them, but the price was right and bid on them. On the car I really like them.


If he puts out the kit to 40mm offset that would open MANY different wheel choices out there. I asked Woody if he knew what the cost is going to be, and he said they were trying to keep them under $250 (and exchange out your old axles and hubs). $250 is more than the addaptors, but I am convinced it is the correct thing to do.
