Topic pretty much says it all. Would be nice to know what all cars we can grab parts from for the 5 lug swap in the rear.

Thanks!

the j30 hubs are not compatable i have personally tried. they may look similar but they stick out an extra 1/4 inch which causes brake alignment problems, and the abs ring is too large and will not fit in the backing plate. they might work if you have a lathe handy and you take off about 1/4 inch of material from the back of the hub and install 240 bearings but it seems easier and cheaper to buy the right ones.
