Wheel Fitment

[jaygore]

Hey guys I'm running the ke20 and from what i can gather the wheels are 4x110 am i correct in saying this? if so are you able to fit 4x113.5 stud pattern? I'm new to all this wheel fitting stuff. i just want to get some sweet rims for the ke20 :) and I'm thinking 15's or 16's

 

please let me know your thoughts, whether pro or con

Its an easy 4x114.3 conversion.

 

Just get later model hubs and axles.

 

There are more specific details in other threads if you search the mechanical sections.

oh sweet i will search it :) and go about it that way... would 16's fit fine under the guards?

I personally wouldn't go bigger then a 14" on a E2#...

Agreed

[mungi mods]

front

ke 70 front hubs , use all existing ke20 front brake disc/caliper ... Bolt on

 

Rear

 

ke35-55 jap/borgy axles depending on what you have , with 5 mm cut off the end , bolt in using the bigger drums

 

easy conversion i did mine in under 2 hrs

 

as for rims

 

14x 7 with a 195/45/14

15 x7 with a 185/45/15

 

same rolling diameter as stock 12 with a 155/80/12

 

easy

I'll butt in with what my mechanic reminds me of every time I talk about rims...

 

In Vic I'm pretty sure the rule of thumb is that you can't have rims that are more than 2 inches bigger than stock, so if it comes stock with 12s the biggest you can go is 14s.

 

This might not be completely true and you'll probably get away with it as long as they don't look stupidly large.
