Just drill out the hubs to six lug. Only takes a little time bu twell worth it.

 

+1 !!!!

 

All you need is a heavy duty drill (don't try this with your craftsman 3/8 you'll burn it up), a die/angle grinder to flatten out the back side of the hub, a couple of drill bits and some 6 x 5.5" nissan or toyota rims. Mine are from an '87 nissian 2x4 and I find the offset is ideal. When I was using 27" swampers and pugs I had 3/8" spacers and they still rubbed. Problem solved with the nissan wheels, and you can get them in most any JY cheap! Annother thing to think about is say you get a flat and seriously damage that pug rim or just on some heavy off-road use. How much harder will it be to find annother pug wheel as opposed to getting annother nissan? and seriously, drilling the hubs and using steel wheels and a hand drill really isn't hard. You knock out 2 of the wheel studs, bolt up the 6 lugg wheel and drill.:cool:
