Is it possible to change a bolt pattern? I know that it would takea serious amount of work, but has anybody ever seen it done? Thanks for the help

im in the process of trying to do this too, i would think you would just change the hubs :?:

Yea, all you do is change the hubs which require finding other hubs like the xB. I know from my research on Integra Type R's (since the Type R has a 5 lug bolt pattern and any other model has the 4 lug bolt pattern) that changing the hub is all you need to do but finding a similar hub would be the problem

You will also need new rotors.

Why not just buy adaptors?

Edit: Brain Fart

Why would you like to change the bolt pattern? What real significance could it make anyway? to answer your question= try the 2003-2004 Corolla S model. It is 5 on 100mm and everything should bolt up clean. You will end up with larger front rotors but still have drums and the rear.

exactly what i was thinking.

or you can convert the rear drums to disc..

so where to buy this "adaptor" thing?
and how much is it?

I wanna get my friend's Volks LE-37 off his Prelude
He sold his car

After you buy a 1 1/3" adapter (if you could find a 4 lug to a 5 lug adapter) where on this God's earth could you find a wheel with a +70mm offset.
Don't listen to this adapter BS, I sell them and I am here to tell you the application won't work.

firts, why do you want to change? i hope its not to find more rims that fit.....cuz if thats the only reason thats just a waste of money. if you want rear disks you can swap them out of an older carolla gts like slowpoke did, or get some willwoods, of course i could never afford that....but its a nice thought

ps hey guys i was thinking of the bombnst swap ever, just visualize it, front drums!

Talk about Old Skool.

Anyways, If you really want to do anything, do it right the first time, I agree with dub box, do a complete rotor/hub/drum swap to get 5x100 bolt pattern, but you're still looking at the same kinda wheel as 4x100, as both are Japanese.

Just my $0.03 short of a Nickel.
