Re: don't try this at home??



this 4 vs 5 bolt issue makes me think that the drivetrain (maybe after the
016 tran) is different on the 5 vs 5k(?), i.e. heavyduty driveshafts,
bearings, hubs and brakes (?)  BTW BBS makes a grade 10.8 bolt for the wheel
lugs on the 5k app wheels and I would presume, has them available for other
apps as well (read tweeked 4ks).  Sure would think this would reduce any
shearing problems at hi torque/hp.  I know that Dodge had this shearing
problem when they ran the GLH turbos in SCCA Po Rally/ShowStck, that's why
all turbo fwd cars got the 5 bolt pattern as a running change in 1985.
