howdy fellers. just bought a 1983 200e bigred. couple questions, couldnt find my answers on other threads so thought id ask here. i want to go to 10 or 12 inch rims, and apparently mine has 4x150 bolt patterns, which seems impossible to find, any input? thanks
The fact of the matter is you cannot find rims with a 4 by 150 bolt pattern anymore they just do not make them. Your best bet is to find some hubs off of a 200x so you can switch to a 4x110 bolt pattern then you can mount any rim you want.
thanks for the help! also its having trouble getting into low range, anyone know anything about that?
Got the same issue, except now it won't shift into 1st or neutral. I guess it's time to get a Manuel and open it up. Let the fun begin! Good luck with yours.
ok i got the rear hubs in and they will work perfectly, but the front hub i ordered is way huge. is there a 4x110 front hub i can use? oh btw the shift thing is dumb, the screw on the lever was loose
So basically what i need is a front hub for a 1983 200e with a 4x110 bolt pattern. Or a 12 inch rim that fits. Any help would ve greatly appreciated alot. Thanks
Did you ever have any success with your front wheel issue? I am going through the same thing now. I am changing the rear hubs to 300EX 4x110. Then looking for wheels and tires. I have not started working on the front wheel yet as I am rebuilding the rear end. Please let me know what you have come up with and thanks.
