Ow... Thats interesting....
Tell me more!

4x114,3?
Will the caliper bracket fit the lude?
That would be great.
Still unsure what to do with the brakes now.. So this might me a nice temporary sollution ..

5x114.3 unfortunately but you could always go 5 stud

Yeah been thinking about it.. I have all the bits. If I go for the stoptech I will want the 5 stud and will have to get new rears anyway.. Good tip!

Better choice of weels too btw
