Changing Stud Pattern of wheels

[Jebus]

Quick question, how feasible is changing the stud pattern of wheels, and what rough cost would you be looking at?

The wheels are Simmons Vista, and theyre in a 4 X 140 stud pattern at the moment, there appears to be alot of meat around the mounting surface, just wondering if its do-able. Dont wanna know if you would do it or not, just if it can be done and rough price.



Thanks heaps.

i dunno but cant u get adaptors?

[Jebus]

Dont want adaptors, as it puts mega load on the suspension, and the wheels are already RWD offset so will be half a kilometre out of my guards.

what on earth has a 4 x 140mm stud pattern?????

[Dell'Orto]

Subaru Vortex/Leone and probably other old Subarus too.

Looks like it could be an option on those. I'm assuming you'd be going to a 4x114 stud pattern? If thats the case then you're only coming in about 13mm which there look to be plenty of room for in your situation. Take it to a machining or engineering place and ask what they could do it for you for.

work wheels like these?



or maybe these?

[Jebus]

Nah not meisters, if they made Meister S1's in 15" or smaller it would be rolling on them, but the last thing my car is having is 17" wheels.

I got these ones,
