does anyone use them?
*5 lug swap conversion* I thought. ...why..not just use adapters? I seen 2 go for about $80 on ebay. I have a ford 8.8 rear end 5 lug....front is 6lug... cheaper easier to do adapters right????????? |

The biggest problem with using adapters is the thickness of the adapter. Most hardbody guys swap to 5 lugs to have access to more wheels that will tuck. The thickness of the adapters reduces the number of those 5 lug wheels that will still tuck. That’s my take on it anyway.
