I need to have 5X130 drilled into late model drums

Who does this and what can I expect to pay?

No prob!

I know it would be nice to have a local shop available, but I haven't found one yet either.

Will you be going disk in front?

No disk in front. I'm just trying to figure out what the added cost would be to have that pattern. Opens up more options for rims. Not a big fan of most of the 4X130 stuff.

I hear ya. Not much available for that pattern. That's why many late Bug owners go to 4x100. Have you seen this page for wheels?

Too bad Brad has all his stuff up north. He has done it before.
