Converting 5 x 100 to 5 x 114

Did anyone do that before? I have a 04 and most of the aggressive offset wheels doesn't come in 5 x 100. So I wonder anyone heard of or did such conversion. Can it be done? Thanks in advance!

it can be done. you can either do a 5x100 to 5x114.3 conversion or just use 5x100 to 5x114.3 conversion spacers. the actually conversion requires alot of parts (not too sure on exactly which ones, ask SG5...he did the actually swap). the only thing with the spacers route is that they are 15mm spacers. you can custom order aggressive WORKS in 5x100. thats what I did

15mm spacers does that means it won't have enough room to run 9" to 9.5"?? I'm still kinda of a n00b. Thanks tho.

im selling almost everything you need for the swap, and also some brembos. i have the axles, hubs, rotors, calipers, pads, etc. i believe all you need left is a rear diff and a custom driveshaft. (im sure there are some other parts involved as well but that should be the jist of it)

Hey pj21086, I just read ur post... LOL... I guess I'll need more than what I originally thought... why won't my current driveshaft and differential work?

Btw, I drive 04 wrx. I need to do more research on this. It is a sweet, sweet package tho. Thanks.

well, lets say to get an aggressive wheel like 18x9.5 +35. you add the spacer and it makes it +20


The lowest offset ive seen on a suby is dunnojacks STi with 18x10.5 +22
