rims: re-drilled and sleeved?

[91 LSC SE]

Hi everyone,

I see lots here that have hub swapped from 5x108 to 5x114.3.

I recently come across Cobra R rims that were 5x114.3, then drilled and sleeved to 5x108.

Anyone have rims drilled and sleeved and if so, what is the better way to go?

drilled wheels done correctly are fine.
theres no issues either way assuming no shortcuts were taken.
the hub swap is nice because i can buy off the shelf mustang wheels from nearly anywhere and install them.

Thanks again Chris!

The ones I found were bought, drilled and now selling shortly after the initial install. They aren't in my area, so I can't test them out first. I'm pretty happy with my rims and they have a larger deep dish than the 18x9 Cobra R's, so I think I will stay with what I have.

Here is the link should anyone be looking for these rims in our bolt pattern. From what I found, they are out of stock everywhere.
