Swapping a GSR over to 4 x 100 stud pattern

[NFG]

Hello all,

I've been searching for new wheels lately, and have noticed a distinct lack of 4 x 114.3 wheels these days. Everything I like the look of is in 4 x 100, I'm guessing due to the sheer number of vehicles running that stud pattern now. For reference, I'm looking for 17 x 7.5 wheels.

My question for today is, what parts do I use to swap my GSR over to 4 x 100 (if I go this route)? Can I use a mixture of CE Lancer/Mirage front hubs and rear hubs off of a disc brake proton, or will this not work?

I know 5 stud swaps are possible too, but I'd prefer to say 4 stud.

Any help/insight would be appreciated.

Thanks.

gsr is AWD the car you mention are FWD unfortunately none will have provision for rear axles your actually beter off looking into 5 stud conversion more rim choices and can use evo 4+ hubs

Fronts are pretty straight forward, just change hubs, backs I dont know 100%, might be harder, I dunno if they have the provisions for the driveshaft to go through, plus spline count an size? Surely wouldnt be too hard???
Really though, For the hassle I'd go 5 stud, ya can put any factory evo wheel on plus a lot more other options and then brake upgrades later are easier too

Where abouts are you? I saw these pretty cheap with good rubber too #152571259800 on ebay

Ah, you press post as I was typing,
Well there ya go

Bugger. Figured that'd be the case. I guess 5 stud does also have a lot more options. Thanks guys.

What style of wheel are you after? There are a lot of options for 4x114.3 depending what you want

I've got a cheap spare set of buddy club p1 rims in white 17x7 +42 4x114.3 if you're in Melbourne.

I'll find something in 4 x 114.3, there's a few wheels I've liked, it's just the wheels I've found in the exact size and style I want are only 4 x 100.

I'm in Central Qld, and I'm not really a fan of the p1's. Thanks anyway.

Sets of these come up occasionally on Yahoo, and a lot of the 17 x 7.5's I find are 4 x 100 due to them being mainly for Mini's.

 

[Ian91]

That style of wheel could probably be redrilled, if the back on the centre was flat.

 

[khubner1]

those come in 4 x114.3 anyway

I've never seen them in those sizes on yahoo auctions, they're always 4x100. Guess I might get lucky one day.

Nice choice, and popular with the Honda's hence the bulk of the 4 stud being 4x100
Dan had/has a set of these, but they were in 16"

He may still have them for sale?

Another outrageous thought...

The CM5A should be 4 x 100 PCD and there is a possibility that the components (front and rear hubs) could work

Or you also have replica wheels (which come with their risks)
Katana and Rota have replica RG's

Are you sure the ce gsr is 4 x 100 Tim? I thought like a cc gsr they would be 4 x 114.3 ?

Proton run 4x100

 

[khubner1]

Proton run 4x100

also only FWD your challenge is finding hubs for the rear (with driveshaft splines) in 4x100.

Redrill the rears. No big deal. I went from 4x100 on rear to 5x100, then to 5x114. All on same hubs, there is heaps of meat there
