Hub swap question


Bryan Broaddrick

Recommended Posts

Here's my dilemma... I purchased a set of 19" BMW wheels which have a bolt pattern of 5x120. Not a big deal, since I could just install hub adapters. However, the problem is the wheels are staggered, 19x9.5 in front, and 19x10.5 in back. Since the rear wheels are so wide, I'd rather not add the 1" hub adapter, making the wheels stick out an extra inch.

So, my question to you all... is it possible to switch the 5x114.3 rear hubs with 5x120 hubs?

Side note: the rear wheel hubs produce a lot of road noise, and seem to be going out anyway. I hear this is a common occurence in the Edge.

Any and all advice/opinion is welcome.

Thanks!

Just bought some 'wheel adapters' from them.

They can help you, give them a call...ask for Lenny.
