As title really, I'm looking for some that will take 4x108 peugeot to 5x114.3 mazda. Found some in the US but they were for ford 4 x 108 and shipping was pricey.

Ford or Peugeot has no bearing on it what so ever. 4x108 pcd is 4x108 pcd....

There used to be a firm called G23 Engineering that used to be super affordable, and bloody good as well. Unfortunately I think they might have taken a step away from spacers and gone into more precision based industrial machining, I could be wrong though!
Give them a Google, used to be the best.

What did the Latvian want for them? Custom engineered stuff/ one offs are expensive to make. Centre bore is the least of your worries. Best option might be to get that set from the states and bore them out. Would be wary with cheap adaptors as going from four stud to five is less than an ideal scenario to start with. Those adapted, were they one piece or two piece, and how thick ?

Off topic but where did you manage to find a full set of RE Amemiya? Also arnt they 17s? Cos they'll scrub badly on a 205

Have you actually worked out if these will even fit? What offset are the wheels? Bearing in mind your adaptor plates are going to be at least 25mm thick because of this little problem regarding geometry when you try bolt Five hole wheels onto Four bolt hubs.....  |

The Peugeots standard offset is 20, the RE 's are 45. Tbh I am just spitballing here. But I have been trying to locate some super wheel porn for my little 205 and had the idea about adapters looking at some Bmw bbs, then it dawned on my I have the RE amemiya in the garage in bits left over from my Soarer. Plus I have spare front wings to chop and put extensions on.
Maybe I should just sell the RE's and get some rimzors that fit. I'm just pretty ubderwhelmed by all the stuff thats avalible in 4x108.
Ronal turbos don't suit, and schmid th lines are the go to split rim for the Peugeots.

4x108 to 4x100 is a common one, mainly because theres much nicer 4x100 wheels than there is 4x108's
rota grids for example, not the japan racing reps......
they're on ebay at £137 a pair, so need 2 pairs. could work out as expensive as the wheels or more, keep an eye out on wheel for sale groups on facebook ( if you use it ) theres usually someone selling adaptors for less than brand new money

Have you considered having the wheels plugged, welded and redrilled? This is very common practice with a lot of firms offering it as a service.m
I don't know much more about it than it's possible and there are firms out there doing it.

I don't want to spoil the wheels, as I'm (given my car history) very likely to have something large and J and 5 stud.
Tbh I'm gonna struggle fitting 9.5J rims in the 205s arches.
If they weren't staggered I could probs squeeze the 8.5s in with 195s and a little stretch.
Will they fit tell me the 9.5s will need spacing 50mm to clear the shocks. Then they'll stick out 63mm further than my Oe 14s
Am I insane? I wish the 205s arches weren't so teeny.
