As far as I know there is NO bolt-on 5-lug hub swap for s-13 front hubs.

$250 / set..... cheap enough considering they include new OEM bearings.

Ok, let me be a little more specific. NO stock nissan hub will bolt onto the s-13 spindle, and actually work correctly, other than the OE s-13 one. Your BEST option is conversion hubs. Did that clear it up with you LFOabuse?

I'm going to be trying this on some spare 4 lug hubs soon. We'll see how it goes. I'm using a 5 lug rotor to know where to drill.

I haven't searched yet, but will an s14 se rotor be hubcentric on an s13 4 lug hub? I'll search now, but if anybody knows off the top of their head, that's cool too.
