Champion Motorsports and BBS.

There is no doubt that HRE or BBS are 2 of the best quality wheels made.

but was wondering if anyone has converted 5 lug to a center lock? How would someone do this? Was on Neez's website and saw that they can make the rims center lock.

I've been thinking about why my bolts keep snapping and this could definitely address this problem.

Btw my lug bolts have snapped from Carllsson and Renntech. Not just one but MANY. It was interesting to note that my lugbolts are 12 mm vs the 14 mm on the E55s.

Finally I got fustrated and had adam(euroelites) custom make some very strong lugbolts for me.

Snapping lug bolts!?!?!? :eek: Snapping when torquing them or when driving? Sounds scary. Did you make a big wheel offset change or running spacers?

driving
 
when driving ... offsets are different but not massively so. The renntech rims don't use spacers ... The carlsson rims use a 10mm spacer(hubcentric).

Snapped I think 7 Renntech and 12 Carlsson bolts so far. All on the 2 rear tires.
