navi wheel ques?

haha you quote "the wrong way" like its actually the right way. I obviously cant change your opinion, but understand that someone taking your advice will see it as "the right way" (quoted because it is not the right way) and may not be as lucky.

Ask a professional, doesnt have to be an engineer, go see tony the tire guy, and see what he thinks. He will likely turn white when you tell him about it. There are testimonials from guys who snapped their studs with navi wheels, both on ssm and on mazda bscene. Any luck you have, and it is luck, will go from "no probs" to "probs" in a second.

but above all, stop giving advice based on luck.

Hell, there have been ppl that have busted all studs off on a wheel on S-10's running BMW wheels, and that's even less of a diameter difference then Mazda-Navi. Ignorance really must be bliss.

Whatever, get some 12x1.50 lugnuts and put them on, i have had 2 sets of navi wheels on my truck for the last 3 years. no probs.

Wow this guy is a genius!!!!!!!!! No wonder minitruckers get such a bad rap in the automotive world..........

as long as busch, bud, miller, and oe continue producing beer the masses will look down on minitruckers, cause 95% of us are freakn drunks

while this is part way true, they also look down on us because of potentially deadly vehicles. Plus, how many minitruckers actually drink Old English?

I did not quote it because its the right way. I know it is not the best way to mount them. When i ran out of time to debut my truck as the first driveable bodydropped truck at a local show I couldnt get the wheels redrilled. My dad was going to do it at work. So i ghetto rigged it yes, but it has worked for 2 years, thats all. I have not removed them for those 2 years, nor drove it for more than 3000 miles since then, I will stop giving advise based on luck.

^^^^ Thats awesome sir.

yes, I agree, good show.
