As above folks
I have the Vauxhall 5x105 pcd and it's annoying the hell outta me.
Is it possible an engineering firm could bore new holes in my hubs for a different pcd?

Yip, but you'll need to have the brake disks done too.

The main thing that will limit you is if the ABS ring gets in the way so it depends what sort of hub you have.

Having to do the brake discs everytime they need replaced sounds like hassle TBH

Unless you can find discs that have the correct pcd and fit.

He could use that local place that makes the discs to order. There was a thread about them a while ago on here. Their name will come to me.

Whys it annoying? Just get the alloys you want made up to spec. Drilling discs etc. is going to be a nuisance the next owner of your car may not be interested in.

How often do you change discs though? It shouldn't be too much trouble.

If you want to eventually sell the car stick new discs and hubs into it (if it's worth it).
