Okay, I found a set of wheels that I like in the Moda MD1 19's in chrome. As usual no 5 x 108 bolt pattern. How big of a deal is it to have them re-drilled from say a 5 x 114 or a 5 x 100? And how much can I expect to pay?

Here is a link, they almost look like the gen 1 stock sport wheel.

I also found these. They would fit with no modification. Opinions please... The Moda's (before drilling) are about 350.00 cheaper.

I really like them both.

On a side note, I am leary about buying used wheels from anyone because I bought a set of Enkei Capones through here described as "excellent condition" and they were not in excellent condition. Thank you very much JBDWood...
Now I am out a chunk of money. So if anyone can get a deal on removing dents or doesn't care about dents and wants a set of 20's super-super-super cheap PM me and I will let you know the detials on the rims.
I will be completly upfront-
Unlike JBDWood.
 
I like the second ones better. You cant drill the first set, you cant re-drill the same hole bigger to make it fit. You can drill a second set of holes preferably on a wheel that has a center cap, It covers the lugs so you dont see the second set of holes, now its not recomened to drill chrome wheels because it causes peeling.
 
Pictures of the Capones please. :D Interested.
