What wheels are those they look like bmw ones? If so did you use hubcentric adapters to fit them

Old post but anybody know how thick the hub adapters were on the rear? Is the front hub re-drill straight forward enough?
Cheers

Thanks for the reply.

10mm !!! Is that even safe? Seems very thin , I've never used a hub adapter so I might be getting it wrong
