Hi
New to the forums and have a Journey question. I have an '09 SXT that came with the 19" wheels and those garbage 225/55/19 Kuhmo KH16 tires. I've found it very difficult and very pricey to replace the treads on these 19's, and was wondering if I could swap them out with my older, spare 350Z wheels.
I don't have (and cannot find) all the the info on the stock 19's, but I do know that they have a 5x127 (5x5) bolt pattern (and a relatively high offset, like 35ish).
The specs on the Z wheels are:
Front
Size: 18x8.0
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3 (5x4.5)
Offset: +30mm
Weight: 26.56lbs
Tire: 225/45-18
Rear
Size: 18x8.0
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3
Offset: +30mm
Weight: 26.56lbs
Tire: 245/45-18
I can buy 4 5x127 to 5x114.3 wheel spacer/adapters to adjust for the bolt pattern difference, but is there anything else I'm missing? Seems like this should work, but I'd hate to spend the $$$ on the adapters only to find out there's a problem with the centerline hub adjustment or something like that.
Any help or past experience with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,m
Rich
