Question about swapping hubs for 4x100 to 4x114.3

So my cousin has these classic Advans that he's willing to give to me for free, however they are of a 4x114.3 bolt pattern. He told me that i'd have to find a way to switch the hubs. Can anyone explain to me where and possibly how to do this??? Or direct me to someone/something that can help me out??

thanks!

the easiest way of doing this is buying an adapter, I know they sell 4 to 5 lug but I dont know about 4X100 to 4X114.3

Spacers that convert 4x100 to 4x114 woud work. Though you'll have to have fender clearance to fit them...

it is simply a chunk of metal so there is nothing that can really fail except maybe the bolts. I think H&R makes a set of these adapters as well so they would be the premium brand to go with if you care about that.

What's the offset on these classic Advans? is an extra inch going to make you poke?

I believe the offset is +45 so it should be flush with the fender, according to my cousin we're going to need to roll the fender as well.

I don't think you'll need THAT much work. I currently have 25mm spacers (about an inch) in the rears on my GE with the stock wheels (+55 offset) with no rubbing and a little room to spare. I'm also dropped 2" in the rear and 1.8" in the front. I would venture to say that +45mm would fit in the rear with minimal rubbing, maybe none at all. The front would probably be of concern, but I believe the GD's have more room to work with anyway. You'll never know until you try!

That's what I'm on too... but for the GE. I guess the drop is reversed?
