Rim bolt pattern questions..

[TheRoadVirus]

I can't for the life of me find any weld rodlites or prostars in 5x5.5 bolt pattern. Is it possible to switch to the 5x5 pattern? I realize it'd be alot of work but what exactly would it take? New axles, new brakes? (at least the drums and rotors I assume).. what am I missing? (2wd truck, btw). Oh.. crap can't remember the name of the front piece. Thanks in advance guys.

You might be able to get an adaptor. Have you looked into brake kits to see if there is a 5x5 kit?

No actually, that's a good idea.. I'll go have a look.

Hmmm, I'm not sure where to look other than summit (just looked).. any ideas?

Im guessin like companys that make brakes, Bear, Strange, Whilewood(sp). It might be easier to go with a different wheel.

I cant believe they dont make them . I know a few guys running 20's that had to go right to manufacturer to get the 5x5.5 . Its still one of the most common patterens. They online places only list so much stuff. And sunmmit really fails at times. But good luck with search

Yea, I found it pretty hard to believe as well. I'm sure they're losing a fair bit of business if they really aren't. I've searched and searched and with no luck.
