Changing lug pattern?
Has anyone figured out a good way to change the front lug pattern from 5 x 5 to 5 x 4 3/4? I have the 1" rotors now, and I may have found a rotor that will work, but I'm not sure yet!

Re: Changing lug pattern?
5 lug to 6 lug is merely a call away for you to CPP. I know because I thought about going that route first (my rear is still 6 lug)

Re: Changing lug pattern?
Why do you want to change for 5 on 5 to 5 on 4 3/4?

Re: Changing lug pattern?
CPP = Classic Performance Parts THey have specialty rotors available for 5 lug to 6 lug applications.
Long story short, I have a 73+ crossmember on my 68. 5 x 5 lug pattern. I have a 6 lug rear. i have a set of 5 x 4 3/4 steel wheels off of my Bel Air (went aftermarket on Bel Air) I want to paint them red and run Spider Caps, (which only come in 5 x 4 3/4 and 5 x 4 1/2 lug patterns) So I need to get a set of rotors for the front that will be 5 x 4 3/4. Sound crazy enough?
