Have YOU Run 5x100 and had Failure First Hand?

My 64 Valiant had 5x100 steel wheels off some import on the rear when i bought it. I suspect they weren't on the front too because of the hub thing. I couldn't keep the lug nuts tight, they would loosen up over about a week or so of driving 45 miles a day. Not a problem for me who recognized what that funny vibration was but I got some of the right wheels on as quick as I could afford it.

That is what the thread said that I can't find too but he actually had pictures showing the differences. I wish I had saved that thread but I never dreamed that people would continue to try this.

I do have a question.... If you are going to buy new rims why not buy some that actually are made for your car? There is another thread where a member found some good looking aftermarket wheels that was large like you are looking for.
