5 stud conversion

[allanb]

I'm thinking about another Chimaera, but I would like to do a 5 stud conversion, as I really like Spider wheels (yes i know they are fragile and heavy, but i like them!!)

So with this in mind, has anyone done the 5 stud conversion, and if so what were the pitfalls?

Cheers
Allan

If you enter 5 stud conversion in the search facility there are at least 4 threads which can help you.

Talk to Ian at Sportmotive.

Always seems to me like a mod thats pretty straightforward if you've done it before, but a bit of a minefield if not?

You'll need some setup work on the suspension once its done anyway - factor in the parts for the conversion on top of that and it may be one of those jobs to hand over to a specialist.

i am a lazy git though

thanks for the feedback guys,

I was going to do this and have all the parts including, hubs, new bearings, hub centering rings (to locate the wheels on the hub properly, not just the studs) and a set of gorgeous RL7 wheels from a Cerbera.

I've since decided to sell the Chimaera so all the above is for sale.

PM if interested.
