You wil have to replace the 4-lug Hub with a compatible 5-lug hub - you should take the 4-lug hub with you to any auto-mechanics shop and ask them if they can find the dimensions of that Hub; and possibly find a 5-lug hub that matches.
Keep in mind; You will need new Brake Rotors (5-lug versions) if you transfer to a 5-lug hub. You might need to check the drive axle as well; they might have a different groove pattern not compatible with a different 5-lug hub. But don't quote that.

This can be caused by the washers that hold the engine are loose or worn down, causing extra vibration when the car is running. Not too expensive to fix but involves taking the engine out and replacing the springs on the washers.
Depends on the type and size of the wheel. The normal car tire weighs less without the center wheel which can be made from different materials like steel or aluminum that greatly effect it's weight. The wheel can also be for a lawnmower or bicycle weighing only a few pounds or a jet airplane or huge construction vehicle weighing hundreds of pounds
Wheel alignment 40-60 $ depending on where you go. Wheel balancing 20 $
I rotate mine every 3rd oil change which is aprox 9K miles.
Refer to owner's manual for exact guidelines, but most manufacturers recommend rotating tires roughly every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. Again, see owner's manual for specifics.
Depends on the car, not sure about your mits' - on mine all 4 wheels need to be aligned. If nothing suspenions wise is problematic then expect about 80-150 bucks. if you go to pep boys it is 69.99 for a four whell alignment
you can use a tape measurer and measure center to center to set the tow caster and camber need to be aligned with a machine and your steering wheel will probably not be centered or shell out the 60$ and have it done professionally and they can set all 4 things
There is no reason you should have to. If the tie rod was knocked out of the spindle it goes back in the same place. Nothing else has any effect on the alignment.
On average a 2 wheel alignment runs about $50.00. If you get a 4 wheel alignment it will cost you $80.00 to $100.00. I used to work at a car dealer and we charged $130.00 for a 4 wheel alignment. Best advice shop around and make sure you get a warranty because sometimes the mechanic will not adjust the alignment right and you will have to go back.
This is called an indirect tax because the fee is not paid on the new purchase but has the same effect as if it were.
Uneven tire wear. If the car "pulls" to one side or the other. If the steering wheel is not lined up properly when the car is pointed straight ahead..
BBA
Tire wear is certainly one of the ways to tell, but there are other indicators as well. If the vehicle pulls to one side you no doubt have an alignment problem.
The size of a wheel is determined by 4 different measurements, these are the Rim Width, Rim Diameter, PCD ( Pitch circle diameter ) and the offset.
Rim Width, is the distance between then inner surfaces of the wheel, and is where the tyre is seated against the edge of the wheel.
Rim Diameter, is the diameter of the inner surface of the wheel, and again is where the tyre is seated.
These two measurement are the most commonly quote, eg 10x5 or 10J5, which means the wheel has a 10inch rim diameter and a 5 inch rim width, the "J" allegedly refers to the shape of the wheel rim in cross section(?), and hence the type of type required, J is normal !
To adjust wheel alignment, you must;
have the vehicle on a level surface,
check alignment with gauges or other suitable equipment,
raise vehicle,
remove ball joint using splitter,
turn track rod end depending on toe in or out,
lower vehicle and check again.
this is a lengthy process, and may need to be repeated several times.
hope this helps
Yes, if the width of the tires are right. You can place 33" x 10" wide tires on 8" wide rims. Your tires will have a number like 33x15x10.5. This is a tire that is 33" in circumference, will fit a 15" wheel, and is 10.5" wide. Just verify whether you have 14",15" or 16" wheels before ordering.
The width of the tire is the determining factor here. The most common 33 inch tire size is 33-1250R15, these will probably be too wide for an 8 inch rim.
YES. Otherwise your tires will wear out fast and uneven.
You did not say what kind of vehicle it is. If it is a front wheel drive, it has drive axles and if the drive axle is going out, it will click especially when you turn the wheels.
