New style wheels

Post by oldblue67f100 »

Has anyone drilled out 5x135 wheels to fit their 5x5.5 pattern? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It would be a better fit to drill the axle and rotor / drums to fit the studs at 135 mm vs. slot the wheel bolt holes. Of course you also have to consider if the wheel hubs will fit over the rotor hub or not. Other options are finding late model parts with that bolt pattern and using them. There are option, just you have to figure out what is compatible.
