• I have been trying to locate some old 4x100 rims off of a honda or something, but everyone around here wants a premium for their used rims.

• The hub is different on hondas,youll need spacers
• #7 by truckinwagen on 07 Apr, 2008 13:26
• I would be happy to get spacers if I could get a set of wheels for less than $300
  everytime a good price comes up the wheels are all bent up.

• i'm running honda rimms on mine... it just took me 3 minutes each on a large machine lathe to shave off 2 mm from their diamiter for the hole for the hubbs

• Is that a pipe tee as a spacer  :shock:
  Thats awesomely ghetto.
• #10 by truckinwagen on 07 Apr, 2008 13:46
• yes indeed it is a pipe tee, everything goes ghetto when you only make $100 a week.
• #11 by RabbitJockey on 07 Apr, 2008 14:05
• those wheels should be fine, you'd just need bigger tires.
• #12 by blkboostedtruck on 07 Apr, 2008 14:10
• well trukinwagen! i don't consider it ghetto! i call it inovation!!!
  I also have a lifted rabbit and you use what ever works!
  but never mind about those honda rims go find dodge 4lug rims they will work! and are easyly obtainable!
  P.S. go back to your profile and add your location in there! it will help others point you in the area for parts that you may be looking for in the future!
  thanks Duane

• I have been having a hard time finding bigger tires to fit my 13's
  that and the market for good used tires for 14 or 15 wheels is huge and cheap.
• #14 by blkboostedtruck on 07 Apr, 2008 14:23
• you wont find any bigger in 13' that why i suggest dodge caravan they have a good offset and come in 14' rims! early 80's van that had a 4 banger in it!
