    Think I paid £150 for a full set of hubs from one of the dodgy geezers on here

    Just keep your eyes peeled mate as they're getting very thin on the ground

                      with the granada hubs there arent many 5x112 wheels to choose from but once you have 5 stud hubs you can then fit 5 stud pcd adaptors to take any 5 stud pattern you want, ie 5x120 [bmw] 5x130 porsche, 5x100 audi etc its just a matter of finding the correct et,so the options are endless

                        I've got a set of 4wd hubs modified to 5x120 PCD, was going to use these myself, but decided not to when I got my Rotas.

                          have they been done in 2 pieces and threaded onto each other? seen them done like that before,thing that put me off was if they would be as strong as an orig item?

                            I was thinking about going the 5 stud route at one stage, i bought all the bits neede, but then bit the bullet and bought 4 stud MO,s. Easier to go back to standard if ever needed.
