3 bolt to 4 x 100mm adaptor template?

[beaker]

Does anyone still have one? I'm having no luck finding enough 3 bolt rims, and would like to just get 4 bolts.

Not 4 x 100mm but is 4 x 101.6mm. aka 4". You must be trying to run a quad style rim? 4" is more commonly found on 6x6s, golf carts and trailers.

Mike was nice enough to make me a 3 bolt to 4x100mm adapter plate template for my polished aluminum ITP wheels that I will be using on my new Attex racer. I have the .pdf file in my email from a while back. Let me dig it up and post it for you this weekend.

Jeff, that's the one that Larry linked to. I posted it on the site for everyone to use.

I just noticed that, thanks Mike. It's nice to have that adapter plate template so we can run polished aluminum wheels with a common 4 wheeler bolt pattern.

Hey Jeff,
So the 2 sizes must be so close they work together?

[jpswift1]

Larry, the 4x4" adapter plates will not work with 4x100mm rims, unfortunately. Mike was nice enough to specifically make me those templates to fit the 4x100mm polished aluminum rims that I will be using on my new Attex Thunderchief racer.

Ah, I thought that they were interchangeable. The one that is linked to on the home page I have listed as a 3 on 2" to 4 on 4" adapter but I guess I need to change that to a 4 on 100mm adapter. The holes are 3.937" apart instead of 4" which is 0.063" difference from a 4 on 4" pattern or 0.0315" off at each lug.

Sorry for the confusion, I will relabel the template on the home page.

It wouldnt be that hard to make a 4-4" either would it? That is what I run basically because it just happen to be what was mounted on the tires I got. But they are cheap. It is also a common size on golf carts and I bet they make some fancy dancy aluminum rims for them too.

Larry, you can get polished aluminum wheels in a 4x4" bolt pattern through this company called Buggies Unlimited. 8x8 Polished Aluminum Wheel

Although I'm not 100% sure what thickness aluminum they use for them, not do I know who the manufacturer is. With that being said, I got the thickest ones that I could find for my racer and I wanted to stick with a good reputable name brand. Mine are ITP Pro Series with a .190 thick aluminum wall. ITP makes their 8x8 aluminum wheels in both 4x100mm and 4x4" bolt patterns. I just bought the 4x100mm on ebay because they are much more common and because they're so common, they were also less expensive.

[Mike]

Yeah, I need to make a true 4 on 4" pattern adapter. I'll add that to my to-do list.

Yeah, 4" would be better. Just looking for a common size so it's easier to get them. Let me know if you get to it, would you? And thanks!

Hey Jeff, are those Bead-Lock? Not that I have money to buy anything right now, but hey, I will be back to finishing this stuff up soon

What about those 6x6 world Boxer shorts I was hearing about. I'm still waiting for them.

Hey, nobody is supposed to know about those.

Ok, I went ahead and made a 4 on 4" adapter template and put it on the 3 lug to 4 lug adapter template page.

Thank you, Mike - you are my hero. Us Mike's have to stick together...
