5x112 conversion kit

Puglife · 21-03-10, 08:20 PM

This is purely a FEELER, nothing is yet made up except the designs.

I've spent a long time researching and designing a set of hub flanges for 5x112 fitment audi wheels. These flanges however are designed as a direct fit for type85 CQ and audi 80/90 wheel bearings and driveshafts. The idea is to allow a direct replacement kit that can be reverted if you wish to then go back to 4stud. UR struts and S2 struts are getting harder to get hold of and expensive too.

I have no confirmed price yet but purely seeing if there is interest, if theres none i can convert my designs for UR Quattro reproduction components. Please note that this allows just the hub flange to be changed thus converting to 5x112, however brake discs and possibly calipers will need to be changed to match these.

If there is interest i'll get the final design screenshots and post up, along with a price once i send them to Bambridge.

could be interesting although I got 2 complete S2 sets atm. Only thing is that you need to buy new wheel bearings allround and they're not quite cheap too.

I'll be watching this closely, as intrested in a 5x112 swap on my '95 B4 Coupe. Thats if it would work on my car of course.

This would be good, been thinking about this too for a while....

Pardon the lack of knowledge, will they fit type89's too?

I've got type89 4 stud hubs here to measure bearing sizes. If they're the same then it makes life easier.. if not i can prob adapt for typ89 anyway.

Done some 3D solidworks models, will get the drawings finished and off to machinist for quotes.
