I have done a little bit of searching on the forums and haven't found any specific information about this...even though I know a few members have had to do this.
I have a set of Volk TE37's that I am preparing to mount on my M3. The wheels come with M12 stud holes and will need to be drilled out to M14 for the car's larger stud size. While this sounds relatively straightforward, I have a few questions that I need to resolve before I take this to a shop:

- Do I only need to bore out the bottom, tapered portion of the stud hole?

- If not, how many more mm would I need to bore out the barrel portion of the stud hole?
