The chrome quality was good, and the wheels were not out of round. be careful with the black wheels they will show fine scratches if you arent careful.  GO FOR IT!! and post pics! < Message edited by MyPitBull84 -- 3/11/2007 10:56:38 AM > (in reply to mattlowe01) Post #: 4

RE: Can i trust these wheels? - 3/18/2007 3:04:23 PM    mattlowe01   Posts: 365 Joined: 1/15/2007 Status: offline oh thats true. how much is a 4 to 5 lug conversion? _____________________________ (in reply to 98GTConvt) Post #: 11

RE: Can i trust these wheels? - 3/18/2007 4:53:25 PM    98GTConvt   Posts: 97 Joined: 3/31/2006 Status: offline well, I checked out that site, and they have 4-lugs. I am probably going to order the cobra R 17" four lugs for my 91 LX. But to answer your question, a four lug conversion is about $440ish from 50resto.com (in reply to mattlowe01) Post #: 12

MOST aftermerket wheels WILL NOT work with that kit. the best route is ranger axles and drums, and SN-95 spindles/calipers/brackets/rotors _____________________________ ^^^Str8 Raceka!!!!^^^ (in reply to 99Coby) Post #: 14
