Hey all, just got a reallly nice sparco wheel but its a 3 bolt pattern. I have a 6 bolt hub.
When i bought the car it had an adapter to a 3 bolt karting pattern. (Home made)
Does anybody do a 6 bolt to 3 bolt adapter? I dont want to shell out for a QR boss if i can avoid it.
I need the 3 bolt section to be threaded for m4 bolts and the 6 bolt section to be plain. Do they exist? I can only find a 3 bolt to 6 bolt
My last option is to re drill the adapter i have and then thread it.
that would be my first option, its easy
Well it is my easy option but as its already drilled once i would like a neat and tidy finished job. ( Not very locost i no!)
Talk about deja vu... This subject was partially tackled in this post:-
Previous Thread
Larkspeed sell a Momo apdapter which has plenty of potential to be lathed/drilled
Spa Design sell their own adapter which looks to be the better option... Product code QRA-103A
Spa Design 103A

Timc - Nice but pricey! (Cant choose 3 bolt on their list)
Fandango..., that would mean having to drill the wheel to m6 size and tap the boss.
Looks like no one does a simple adapter, how odd! i'll go get a 3.3mm bit and an M4 tap....
Think i'll make a template from card and try and line it up straight (er than before)
Spa Design have always been extremely accommodating.
Perhaps dropping them a call you could ask for the exact holes you need.

Ok, so getting it all lined up was a lot easier than i first thought, i found a place that did the taps i needed and the bolts somewhere else.
Done and sorted, lets hope its straight!
