ivantruckman Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 where the heck are you guys getting these monster mudder rims, are you re drilling truck rims, id like to fing 14 or 15 inch off road rims for my subie, but i sure dont want to pay 150 bucks each, that defeats the purpose of an awsome inexpensive mudd bogger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75subie Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 peugeot wheels have the same lug pattern, and come in 14 or 15 inch. also toyota wheels can be drilled to fit by knocking 2 studs out of your subaru bolting plates, bolting them to the toyota wheels, and using the holes as a jig to drill out the wheels. the opposite studs on the subaru plate will match up to opposite studs on a toyota wheel.

86BRATMAN Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 pretty much any 6 lug chevy, toyota, mazda, or nissan wheel will work with the right mods, as long as the are 6X5.5" pattern you are good an alternative to 75's sugestion would be to convert your hubs to six lug and have mor lugs holding it on, not a scary as it sounds, knock out two opposing studs just as you'd have to do with the his way, and mark the hub and drum assembly for the other four holes, drill them out and get some new studs and lugs to put into place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem I found is the studs didn't want to stay in, so I got to them with the mig.. A 13.4mm drill bit would of done a much better job I reckon instead of my 14mm.

ivantruckman Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 the advice is greatly appreciated, im off to the junkyard to try it out, im set on drilling the hubs, i have access to a bridgport and custom end mill grinder, i may even be able to broach new splines for the lugs to press in, well see how it goes, ill have the sweetest ride in michigan, not many oldschool subie owners here, everyone thinks im crazy, "just get a ford" they say , ford is a four letter word.... thanks again to all on this site....

calebz Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Just for Info: They -Peugeot- did Came in 13" too... I used to have one in my White Wagon... Don't think the 505s came with 13s in the US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 The 204's came with 13"r's, but they only have three (3) lugnutz??? Nobody warned about the P390 metric size. Bad juju that when it comes to finding tyres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75subie Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 plus, whats the point if they are still 13s?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Nobody warned about the P390 metric size. Yes, make 100% sure the peugeot wheels you are looking at are the standard 14" or 15" and not them 390mm ones. I tihnk only Michelin make those tires anymore and they cost a bucket load!
