Well, not just koreans, but chevys too. I have noticed the occurance of 6 lug wheels on both the 2006 uplander/SV6 , and 2006 Kia Sedona. Why?

 

Here! Well, just the SV6 wheels

I have been looking at the kia for a while and i think its pretty nice....especially for the $$ but i don't think i could bring myself to buy one.

 

Don't waste your money. They last 100k tops, and for a lot of drivers, that's before it's even paid off. Also, found out the hard way on my Rio, changing your own oil invalidates the warranty. There's a site called epinions. com where people write reviews on products, including cars. Might look there and see what other Kia owners had to say. Some are pleased with their purchase, some not, but overall it's a pretty balanced picture.

 

The 6-Lug wheels add strength to the wheels and help make the wheels mount more securely to the axle. In a 2-3 ton car, I'd want that added strength. As for the Kia vans, plain and simple, THEY SUCK(!!!!!!!!), and so does every other Kia. When it comes to minivans, the only one worth the money is (I hate to say it...) the Honda Odyssey, but it's sooooo overpriced it's not even funny. Also, from working at a car wash, they are a b***h to clean and vaccum.
