I know its a common thing to do on Ford Mustangs from the 4 lug to the 5 lug. I was wondering if this is possible on all vehicles... I have a Trailblazer and wheels are hard to come by ecspecially 24" wheels. I want to change it from the 6x127 to maybe a silverado or something more commonly used. I do not want to use adapters and spacers because thats gay and I really dont have much room to work with in the fender when its laid out. I already have to narrow the rear end out. Any help? Thanks!

I'm quite sure that something can be done, but I don't know enough about specific vehicles to be any help. We can entertain custom spindles if you get desperate.

It would also be possible to get a set of wheels that are the wrong bolt pattern re drilled.

What about completely changing out the front suspension on the trailblazer you think S-10 suspension would be silly to do? since its the most common thing.. the only reason im asking so much is because im in iraq and i have like a month left and its killing me not to figure this out ya know..

i would suggest the first idea that usually comes up. redrill the front and rear hubs/rotors to what ever pattern you like. next would be to get wheels with a coverplate (common on larger styles) where there is room to add another pattern you need. or a third if they are spaced properly on dual pattern wheels. the next idea would be billets. they can be made to whatever pattern and offset you need. intro is good people. and modern wheel adapters, although usually needing 20-25mm to fit them, can be very strong.

for a mustang all you have to do is buy all the 5 lug parts off of a better model mustang, you will be looking at redrilling what you have or adaptors or like KAOSS said, get a set of wheels you like redrilled to your pattern.
