Yes seen them but don't look right shouldn't the nut be welded in place?

All the parts I'm using are from a Porsche 944, alloy arms, brakes and driveshaft's.

When I finish my IRS upgrade I will end with a 5 x 130 stud pattern on the back while the front is 4 x 130. I know I could fit adaptors on the front and have Porsche wheels all round, but I really like the centreline style wheels I have. Does anyone know of a wide centreline wheel in 5x130?

Parts Wanted / IRS Bolts and uprade bits.

I'm trying to get the remaining bits I need to do the IRS upgrade. So need a pair of the bolts and washers that fix the arms into the brackets and the two weld in brackets are needed as well. I'm using 944 alloy arms so will need the two swan necks to fit the beetle handbrake cable.

Thanks snoopy, now I've got a set up I'm happy with I can try fine adjustments with tyre pressures anyone have any pressure settings? And I'll try a bit more toe in and let you know the outcome.

Been having some handling issues, round corners she's great but in a straight line wonders all over the place. So last night I checked the camber both sides set  maximum -ve camber and checked the tracking this was at 2mm toe out so set it around 2mm toe-in. This made an improvement but not what I had hoped for, so this morning went to work in her and had to get petrol so filed up and noticed an improvement with the extra weight. So at dinner I removed the anti role bar and what an improvement  she steers so much better. The moral of this story is don't just bolt things on just for the sake of it.  ;-)up
