How hard would it be to convert to 5 lug?

[MOBmentality]

The wheels i want are 5 spoke classics and are trationally for aesthetic purposes exposed 5 lugs..

So ... how hard would it be to convert to a 5 lug.. i have to pull the front spindles and rear axles anyway for the new drop.. sooo ....

get new hubs assembly's for the front and back, i know the front are like 140 a hub, not sure for the back

maybe the hubs off a older body style 5lug tahoe will fit...

and if you cant do that you will have to drill some new hubs and make it a 5 lug or somehow make the wheels fit with adapters

adapters might work on the back and new hubs up front. thats the best idea so far.. i can just accomodate them when we shorten everything else

yea when your shorten the rear axle u might be able to fit adapters, do you know the offset of the wheels you want? maybe u can get them to sit in with the right offset and use adapters in the front too but it would be cutting it close

i think the rear offset is 40.. the fronts i want wide as possible so adapters wont work.. im even kinda looking into shortening the uca and lca an inch so the fronts can either A: be wider or B: be able to turn at full slam. so adapters up front would be counter productive.. the rears dont matter.. i can narrow it as much as i wanna

that can work, i would try changing the hubs out first before shortening the control arms

no i meant.. i (kinda) want to shorten the control arms AND change out the hubs.. so i can do the 5 lug conversion on the hub side and then heave a deeper offset to try and do a 24x12 up front or at least a 24x10 but be able to steer at dead low
