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?

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

brent


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.
