   During my search for suitable alloy  wheels for my 105 GT, it has been mentioned that other wheels (say, from a Alfetta) can be drilled from a 98 to a 108 and steel inserts fitted to the new stud holes so everything fits nicely. Thats a good idea but not the sort of job to be done on the home drillpress. Therefore, has anyone had this operation carried out and if so, who, (having the expertise and equipment ) can undertake this work in Melbourne (or Vic). I only ask simply because so many wheels which become available are mismatched in one way or the other and its very difficult to obtain a complete set of wheels without having to buy from different sources, mostly being interstate and after delivery finding that modifications are required.Pics and descriptions by the owner pre- purchase are not always accurate. Any suggestions welcome. Cheers          Ian
