Thats boss, I would be down for this group buy but I'm to focused on the kswap at the moment. any chance this price can be offered for a local maybe one month from now. Are you guys by the whittier narrows park. My partner lives right on the corner of Troy and Klingerman. Im just down the street on rush but in the El Monte side. Besides it looks like some other hardware is required after the hub purchase. Im still going to nab a set up soon. I have been researching this since i bought my fit in 08. Good job with the R&D. Ill be sure to stop by and check out the shop when I'm back in town.

5x114 = cheaper prices and better offsets and 50x easier to find.


where was this thread 3 months ago lol. ):
lolno. People who have 5x114 cars don't want little 17x7 wheels....And 4x100 17" wheels = Cheapest of the cheap for wheels.

Well..4x100 is not a common pattern for nicer wheels..at least the selection. 5x114.3 is just a more common pattern giving you more choices.

i think when it comes to wheels, everyone has their own taste. some wheels are only offered in 4x100 and others 5x114.3...my style comes mostly from 5x114.3 this is why i need this swap done now!

Not sure if the whole kit fits but I did some research and the rears will fit on without a problem..the front is where the hub part number differs...sorry will double check with baus

Lilaznphatboy: good question...we will need to know for wheel preference...I'll check

Talking

We will come out GD hubs very soon maybe in 1?
and for the bore side oringinally from fit is 4 by 100 and hub bore size 56
Once the swap done, you will get 5 by 114.3 and hub bore size 64

I hope this will help.

People need this swap done, hurry up. It will be worth the money, we had spent so much time/effort/money to come out this kit. 101% gauarntee bolt on.
