Changing 5 stud hubs to 4 stud hubs

Post by Ramrod » Wed Sep 15, 2010 7:20 pm

Hello Readers,
I was wondering if it would be much of a mission to change my Z31 5 stud hubs to 280ZX 4 stud hubs as i want to have 15" rims and with the 5 stud set up its either superlites in a 15" or 17" and above and as i dont want superlites or 17s so if i go to a 4 stud hub setup i have a much wider choice in the type of rimjobs i want.
Any help or tips would be much appreciated!

You would be better to get Z31 4 stud hubs :) given the Z31 non turbo's were 4 stud.

you should be able to find somebody who can do a straight swap for your 5 stud hubs, as the z31 5 stud hubs are reasonably desirable for converting 280zx's and stuff to 5 stud

good luck
