I guess you can have an adpter made up for it just make sure it works ok. You don't want to be turning left on the wheel and the car still going straight ouch

Well i heard it can be done but needs machining so watch this space

I would think its possible. I used to have a emppi VDM on my old ghia and thought that would also looked good. The problem with that is that there is quite alot of depth to the rim which may cause a problem.
Now I seem to have mastered the art of posting pics let see if get one here:

The ghia took me just over a year to restore and it really was a great car. I sold this to buy my first porsche, a 1967 912 that I imported form CA. That was a few years ago now (gettin on a bit now)!!
Lets try the pics one last time. Heres my 67 912 ans also the engine after I did some work on it.
