5 lug to 6 lug

[tothemax]

is thier anyway to converet a 5 lug nissan to a GM 6 lug

I think the better question would be, Why would you want to?

[float_6969]

No.

[Darktide]

a gm 6 lug is going to be a truck tire which would never fit inside your wheel well. But that's besides the point. there is no way to ever change your lug pattern.

[MinisterofDOOM]

You could conceivably change to another Nissan lug pattern with different hubs (though why you'd want to is a different story, considering that the Max's 5x114.3 is about as common as lug patterns get).

But you couldn't change to a GM lug pattern. At least, not without some serious custom work.

As mentioned above, though, 6-lug is the truck lug pattern. It's not going to do much good on a midsize sedan. Any wheels you find in GM 6 lug will be in pickup offsets, which won't work on a Maxima, even if the wheel/tire diameter does fit in the wheel well.

You are talking about on the Maxima, right? Why would you reqiure a six bolt pattern on your passenger car, other than for the sake of liking the looks of a particular truck wheel. While GM and Toyota do share bolt patterns, I couldn't even imagine doing this on a camry...

i cant wait to hear what he has to say his excuse is.

Any adapter can be made, but where will it position the wheel? The wheels better have some very high offsets, because you're probably talking about a 25 or 30 mm adapter/spacer to accomplish this.

alright people it was a simple question and when a buddy just flat out gave me a brand new set of 20" chrome wheels off a 05 colorado you find ways to make it work so tell me what you would do!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so to you people who think this thread is dumb kiss my butt!!!!!!! it was a simple question

[Darktide]

obviously you can't read. He gave you nice rims.... sell'm or trade'm for rims that will fit your car. There is nothing you can do to change your setup so that they will work.

a buddy just flat out gave me a brand new set of 20" chrome wheels off a 05 colorado you find ways to make it work so tell me what you would do!

I'd try and sell them. You'll probably be able to sell them for enough to buy some pretty decent wheels for the Max.

Easy there hombre, just giving you info. You could "possibly" have your hubs drilled out and studs installed. Of course finding a shop to do so and then the cost would far offset the benefits of free wheels. Sell those wheels and get some that work without having to mod your car.

[float_6969]

I suppose if you want to get technical, ANYTHING is possible, but from a monetary standpoint, it's not practical. Even for a set of free wheels.

As others have said, if it were me, I'd sell them and buy a set that works.

Put 'em on Ebay. There isnt enough hub there to redrill for 6 lug unless the previous holes are welded up. Then you'll have to replace all the bearings because the hubs will have to be completly disassembled prior to welding and the hubs will be warped anyway. This project aint happenin'
