Thread: Hub Adapters

You can always use something like a 130 HD centre and have a rim welded to whatever width and offset you'd like, which is what I was originally going to do until I scored the Mach 5 rims I have.

IIRC there are adapters for the traditional PCD to the D2 PCD.

I hear ya! Most of the Sunraysia rims to suit Landrover I like the look of end up being 15x8. It's hard to find a s/h 16" Sunraysia rim nowdays.

And that is why I stick with the standard rims.

Yeah I have seen those adapters, but would prefer a land cruiser stud pattern.

As for the 130 centres that would indeed be a route to take. But then I would be buying new rims and getting them cut up and repainted every time I want a new wheel. Where if I had the adapters I could easily get cheap new rims without modifying.

What if I want to use extreme mudders on private land only and travel between on legal wheels?

I think you'll go to jail for a very long time.

On the other hand, if you use muddies, the law may be a little more lenient.

Check out the comp truck players. They would get their rims custom made. I had a few custom made rims made for a vehicle I have. They made rims for comp trucks. They would make their own centres and weld them into commercially available rims.
Unfortunately, they no longer manufacture rims.

Don't think so. If I use land cruiser rims with my mudders and adapters on private land, then travel on standard LR rims then I am not breaking the law as I am not using the adapters on public roads.

Maybe I will have to look into some custom rims.

What sort of murders?

Extreme Murders.... Sky is the limit.....:0
