81wagoon Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 how do you put chevy rims on a sub, I know you drill 'em out or something but how do you get them centered and everything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. RX Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Well, that depends on which Subaru you are putting them on. For my Impreza, I have a set of 16 inch Chevy steel wheels for my snow tire, the only thing that needed to be done to them was enlargen the center hole a little. Heck, they even fit over my 4 pot front brakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbrat Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 2 different ways. either drill them out, using an old front hub as a pattern. knock out 2 diagonal studs, and the spare hub will bolt up to the chevy wheel. then use the open stuf holes as a guide for drilling the new holes into the chevy wheel. will look like this...

Sweet82 Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I used basic measuring tools. As long as you measure "center to center" of the wholes you should be good to go. Before you drill measure the distance between all the lugs and the distance from one lug to the next. If they are all the same you should be good to go! Center punch the holes before you drill to eliminate, drill bit wandering problems... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=1386&sort=1&cat=500&page=2 Easy!!!
