Default 1320 5-lug swap

Hello, I’m looking into doing the 1320 Wheels 5-lug conversion on my 2004 dodge Dakota 4x4. Currently I have a 6x4.5 bolt pattern but want more wheel options. I’m wondering if anyone has ran this kit and what you thought of it.

Jump to 10:00 there.

They are basically oreilly's chinese hubs that are plugged and welded without having the bearings removed, causing some thermal issues with the bearings, and the rotors are also very poorly done.

Wow.... That is TERRIBLE. I wouldn't even put those on a daily driver. You would have a shake that you could not get rid of. I think even 55mph would have the front end shaking to beat the band......

Oh wow, I see what you guys are saying now geez. Thanks for helping me avoid that headache. I’ll probably just try to find the highest quality adapters I can instead of swapping hubs.

Starting the video, I expected them to be a bit off, but OMG, that was beyond my worse expectations. Those aren't worth a bucket of warm ****.
