Need to swap out the original 4 lug for new 5 lug. Front and rear obviously. How much will it cost? What hubs should I use and who makes them? Thanks for the support guys!

Alright. Thanks for the quick replies btw!!
So even the stock 4 lug with custom 1 piece wheels and tougher studs won't hold up to 550 horse? I really would like to avoid having to swap struts and hubs. |

QUOTE(ZacB20 @ Jun 19 2012, 07:12 PM)  So even the stock 4 lug with custom 1 piece wheels and tougher studs won't hold up to 550 horse? Let's put it this way, you will not find a single racing or autocross venue that allows 4 lug to 5 lug bolt-on adapters. And if that's not enough, with bolt-on adapters, you're still running the /4 brakes that were build for a sub 100 HP car. I'm not sure how much you value your life (or that of others), but if you're planning on pushing 500+ HP in a 914 and at the same time you cringe at upgrading your suspension and brakes, you might be better off buying a Mustang.
