2nd - use this wheel adapter

3rd - giv a call to Chris @ Avatar Mechatronic for customize wheel spacer/adapter as ur liking.

What is inset/outset?

I'm guessing "offset"?

what is the downside/upside for using the adapter instead of boring the rims?
contact no for avatar ?

What is inset/outset?

Inset or outset
This is very important. Ignore this and you can end up with all manner of nasty problems. This is the distance in mm between the centre line of the wheel rim, and the line through the fixing face. You can have inset, outset or neither. This determines how the suspension and self-centring steering behave. The most obvious problem that will occur if you get it wrong is that the steering will either become so heavy that you can't turn the car, or so light that you need to spend all your time keeping the bugger in a straight line. More mundane problems through ignoring this measurement can range from wheels that foul parts of the bodywork or suspension, to high-speed judder in the steering because the suspension setup can't handle that particular type of wheel. This figure will be stamped on the wheel somewhere as an ET figure.
Inset and outset are subsets of offset and the relationship is this : positive offset = inset. Negative offset = outset. Typically you can get away with 5mm-7mm difference from the vehicle manufacturer specification before you'll run into trouble with the wheels fouling the suspension or bodywork. So for example if your stock wheels have an offset of 42mm and you can only find replacements with a 40mm offset, that 2mm difference ought to OK.

Bro, inset/outset is nothing about the center bore la..What we discussed here is the diameter of the hub.

Wheel adapter is a good option but have to take count the offset.

1. NO need to modify the centre bore of the wheels.
2. For downside/upside kindly ask uncle google.
3. Avatar's contact no, refer to this:
