Can I re drill my RS's? 4x114 - 4x100

I want to redrill my rs's to get a bit more tuck at the front.
They have adapters on at the moment so you can see how the holes would sit.
The 4x100 holes look too close the the centre to me.
I've seen some done really close before.
What do people think?

i wouldnt, the center hole wouldnt go flush to the hub. meaning you will only have 4 bolts stopping your wheels from going ping and not the normal support.. then to follow on from that you will also not have a hole, just a cut out…

i wouldnt mate.. imho   :dontknow:

booze and boredom, the greatest mix :)

No. There's not enough metal to drill proper holes - center bore is too big.

I'm asking to get peoples views if they think I can re drill these from 4/114 to 4/100.
I have adapters, but the adapters are 20mm thick bringing my wheels to et4 on a 7j rim. I'd rather they gad a bit more tuck up front, so by re drilling them they will be et24.

you can't, there's no room for that..
It could be done with some modifications,  but i don't think it'll be safe, so i won't mention them.

the best way out would be to redrill the hubs, not the wheels
