<VV> LM bolt pattern

[JVHRoberts at aol.com]

DEFINITELY NOT A GOOD IDEA!! You wind up with one hell of a bending load on  
the studs, and you lose the centering of the wheel, since the BMW wheels have 
a  larger center hole. Given the mismatch of bolt circles, any chance of 
decent  concentricity is lost. Someone here listed an outfit that'll remachine the  
wheels to correct the bolt pattern for fairly cheap.

So BMW 5  bolt rims are only 1/40 " (.025591 mm) off from 4 3/4 GM 5 bolts ?

The  beveled lug nuts should take up that slack, right ?

Has anyone done  this ?
