Is it possible to use the E71 wheel on the F16? I can't find an adapter online, would I need to find a machinist to increase the bore to 74.1?
Thank you.

I know people have already replied, given you solutions.
Just wanted to chime since in I'm using a set of E71, style 232 wheels, for my winter set up. I know of another member having had same set of 232's bored out, used on his F15.
Since I have fender flares, I also use spacers for both front and rear wheels, to make them not look so sunk in.
So if you have fender flares, don't want to bore out the rears, and can find spacer adapters for the rear, that should work just fine too, without being too wide.
If you don't have flares, the rear wheels with adapters, might stick out a bit, depending on adapter thickness.
