Kev 16v Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Is this bollocks or true?..moveable washers? eBay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kar1 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 bollox, lol the holes would be ovals to stretch the 20mm gap. you can get "wobbly" bolts but they only make up a 2mm difference. like 108-110 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izzzzythedog Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 yeah wobble bolts but being honest id buy wheels that fit properly without needing to be pissed about with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewcutchuck Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 It would be possible if there were eccentric holes in five inserts that you could rotate to different positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpsmith79 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 I've seen those Wobble Bolts before, i personally wouldn't let them anywhere near my car But agreed, there is no way they are multifit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crewcutchuck Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/4x-17%22-Tsw-Ludica-...#ht_9922wt_1084 Look at the pic of the back of the wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpsmith79 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 OMG, never seen wheels like that before, but there certainly isn't 10mm of movement in those, i'd say about 5mm max, unless those holes are massive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewcutchuck Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Each one only needs to move half the change in PCD and if they are 12mm+ holes then I can believe they are 5-6pm offset looking at that pic. Still wouldn't find em on my car tho. (or any TSW wheels for that matter) Edit: just saw that he's claiming 100-120.

rpsmith79 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Yeah, the listing says from 100 to 120 PCD, so would need 10mm movement, and like you say, 12.5-13mm holes, i'd say only about 5-6mm movement And no, i wouldn't fit them either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewcutchuck Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Thinking about it again. If each washer is 5mm offset. that's 10mm over 180deg rotation for each washer. Therefor over two washers that's 20mm! So its possible. Edit: the bit about the offset being 5mm is crap. I mean the dif is 5mm over the 180degree rotation therefor ofset from center would be 2.5mm. I will think before I type I will think before I type I will think before I type I will think before I type ....ect Edited February 6, 2011 by crewcutchuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpsmith79 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 I was thinking there is only 2-3mm offset on each washer, so 5-6mm total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewcutchuck Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Nah, there's more than that. Could print the pic off and scale it from a 12.5mm hole. But I doubt anyone cares that much lol Another edit: I just expanded the pic on my iPhone so the hole measured 12.5mm on a steel ruel. 6mm offset!

rpsmith79 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 You'd basically need to get 2 of those 12.5mm holes (side by side) into each larger hole to get 10mm difference (well that would be 12.5mm difference anyway) The way i see it is that you'd get about a hole and a half, so about 6mm Either way, they are still sh*t wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefor over two washers that's 20mm!So its possible. Think about it 5mm off set, the washer would have to be massive. if the thread of the bolt/stud is m10 or what ever size it is, with a washer of 5mm offset, the internal diameter would need to be at least 15mm and then with the thickness of the washer it would be about 25mm in total diametre... you'd need massive holes on the wheels! and the holes on the wheels themselves would also need to be over sized to allow movement in the stud/bolt from how i work it out anyway, i may be wrong Edited February 6, 2011 by kar1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crewcutchuck Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Ok. Too many beers. I recon about 12mm in total dif between PCD. But in answer to the original question yes they are multifit through movable washers. Edited February 6, 2011 by crewcutchuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Red Celica Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Adjustable PCD or not, still very scabby for £160. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpsmith79 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 You need to get 2 holes side by side so that there is 12mm between hole centres to get you 12x2=24mm overall difference Trust me, i'm a design engineer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
