5 stud conversion

Me and my mate have done the 5 stud conversion on my mates pulsar.



We welded the holes up on the rear gtir hubs and drilled the 5 stud holes in to them.
For the fronts we used rear gtir hubs and welded the holes up again.
then we milled the hubs down to the same size of the front hubs for the bearings to seat on them and them to fit correctly.
This is the only pictures I have at the moment.

Nice mate, thats an interesting way of doing it.

Ive just edited what I put.
I got it the wrong way around lol
the front hubs don't have enough metal to drill the 5 stud holes, that's why we used the rear ones.
What hubs did you use @Woody

I was going to say was there enough meat but I hadnt looked at the stock hubs in a long time. I used stracher hubs and n16 knuckles on the front.

What you do that for, now you be 4 wheel nuts short hahaha .

I was advised about the n16 hubs but we wanted to see if we could make them ourselves lol

Interesting conversion Stu good to see you trying this out

Why do people convert to 5 stud? Does it allow better wheel options?
