I just got my ichiba 5lug conversion kit in. I took the new hub and made sure it fit in my 350z rims. The studs went in fine. But the ring that the tire sits on( idk what its called) is hard to get in the rim i pushed it and it went in. Taking it out thoe it was stuck took me bout a min to get it out. Should they be that tight? And ive herd these hubs are very common so someone should have a answer. Thank you

They should fit with no problem.
Are you talking about the hubcentric ring?

I think i migt be the studs go in perfect does the rotor have to be on? I was just seeig if they fit and relized that it gets stuck. I dnt have the rotors maybe that makes a diffrence. But yes there is a ring i guess and theres also a indention in the rims and it looks like it slides into them but mine is a little tight going all the way in. But is it cuz i dnt have the rotors on the hub frist ?

yeah bro i found the conversion hubs are the good simple way to go. if anything sometimes you need wheel spacers do to the stock 240sx rims being to narrow and now these 5 lug are much wider. check your rims for any imperfection around the stud holes. good luck

No dont think so the rotor on or off has nothing to do with the distance between studs. Im not 100% sure but eventho they are nissan rims nissan made some different bolt patterns.

No the bolt pattern is perfect it! Its where the rim sits on the hub but i found iut thats how its supose to be. So thanx for the help guys.
