    Why bother with a 5 lug conversion to begin with? Wheel selection?

    larger wheel selection, more brake upgrades and better brakes from the getgo, all OEM parts so if anything goes wrong such as bad caliper.. bad lines.. or pads in general, can go anywhere and get it. larger/beefier knuckles space the hub out 5mm further out which is good for some people...

    prolly more, just cant think of it.




    but i guess from my own opinion, i did it just to do it lol .. got tired of 4 lug nuts..

    Personally, I just want bigger brakes and bigger brakes that will clear 15s and 16s. I wouldnt mind getting big brakes but shit, most of them dont clear 16s. Wheel options is just a bonus kuz I'm a wheel whore anyway. Currently riding on Advan RG with some pussy ass stock brakes sucks lol.
