Hub change?

[SplitShifter]

I was just wondering if you or someone you may know has done a hub swap?

I was thinking of going from 5 x 105 to 5 x 114.3, is it possible? Shipping wheels to Alaska is expensive and there’s a lot of wheels here for sale but most of them are 5 x 114.3.

Also I’m going to be getting zzp lowering springs this spring, should I get wheel spacers to make wheels flush or would it look okay without?

I looked into swapping them out to match the ~2014 Cruze diesel pattern 5x115. I spec'd it out to run the diesel larger brakes and also get a better bolt pattern, but decided it wasn't worth the cost for me.

IDK if there are any factory vehicles with 5x114.3 you could pilfer from...

Might be a dead thread but I've been researching this, too. I haven't done much work on cars so I might be real in over my head lol. I need to change my front wheel bearings out soon so I was hoping to get both at once.

My plan is to run 18x8 rims. I think I'm going to stick with adapters so I can run some used Ford rims (lots of their models after 2010 use 5x114.3 18x8 rims) and the extra 20mm of space will lend me peace-of-mind that the tires won't rub against the body or suspension.

I wish I could find 5x130 adapters... Someone on Craigslist is selling their Porsche Cayenne winter rims for $200 lol. It'd be nice to snatch them up

Curious, what cost did you get the swap up too?

It hit $1000 or so and I said forget it (didn't do it). I was looking at all new parts, if you find a wrecked car and could grab everything it'd likely be cheaper.
