It 5 on 5 1/2

 

for some reason the tire shops that I have contacted use the first # in inches and the second in millimeters, but that seems the norm. The tire/wheel combo is going to be 17x8 wheel with 225/60/17 tires. I hope that fits my stock sammy

Does the front of a 2wd zuk have a big hub like the 4wds do. Cuz a zuk has the big hub up front. Like old fords and scouts and maybe heeps. I know that a late model ford wheel will not fit on a zuk cuz of the front hub size.

Not sure that matters with a 2wd jus thought i should bring it up. Id hate to see a fellow zuker lose cash flow for no reason.

You know I was thinking the same thing, I put the zook away for the winter in storage and haven't had a chance lately to get her. Looking at some of my pics I know that the wheel has a hub looking device in the front and back, but I believe that it is a fake clip on cover over the center hole. I'm going to have to make it a point to get out there this week and get that answer for sure. I'll let you all know what it has then.

 

It got a big hub, that the wheel fits over. So the hole need to be same as a 4x4.

 

That's correct. ALL suzuki 4x4 trucks have the LARGE front hub, regardless if it is 2wd or 4wd.

The correct BOLT specs are " 5 on 5.5 ".

No one makes a 17" rim that will fit a samurai.

You MUST MUST MUST MUST have the LARGE centers (the hole in the center of the wheel).

The EASIEST thing to do would be to buy adapters to convert the 5 on 5.5 to the standard import (toyota, nissan) 6 lug specs.

With a 2wd truck, the spacers would take care of spacing problems up front with a SMALL center wheel.

That's my 2 cents.

ps. I've got easy access to 6 lug 18" rims, but it's toooo costly to get adapters for the samurai stuff. 300 dollars + for adapters..
