114.5mm rims on my 86 120.6mm bolt pattern???

Someone else has to of come across a nice set of rim that just almost fit. If my lug studs were flat sided just a tad on the out side [ say a strip 1/4 in wide flat spot] those 114.5mm rims would fits just fine.

Anyone came across this and found a solution??? $2-300 on adapter plates justdoesnt make sense when they almost fit. a one size bigger drill bit through the rims would make it fit. Some special replacement lug studs or some other option must be out there.

Anyone got a clue???

Lose the F*rd wheels and get Chevy ones instead.

 

Nope, they are Dodge rims off my old Duster.

I have about $400 into them and will not likley own another dodge again. They are real nice 15x7s and 15x10s sawblades.

Sell them for what you can get and buy something with a Chevy bolt pattern. You can't just "open up the holes" in the wheels because then the lugs won't be centered on the holes and the wheels will never run true. You also can't just drill the axle flanges for the bigger bolt pattern because for one that weakens the flange and for another there are reinforcing ribs on the back of the front hubs right where the holes would need to be. And then who's to say the backspacing would be right?

 

Same thing. 5 on 4½ no matter which of the other brands they happen to be currently bolted to.

Trade them or sell them to somebody that can use them, and get a set of wheels that fit your car.
