I encourage people to spend their money on their wheel/tire combinations instead of spending it on hub conversions from 8 to six or 6 to five. The old notion that there are limited wheel choices for the six lug or eight lug hubs is a thing of the past.

This is the truth! I blew a set of 24.5 11R trailer duals a while back and spent several hours at Port Angeles Les Scwhab (huge Western tire retailer for you east coasters), playing with the tire/wheel computer. If you want it with 8 lugs, it's out there.

Only reason I'm going to five lugs on my truck is the fact I scored a '71 rear end for the right price, and the disc swap is cheaper.

Had I a 3/4 ton, I'd stick with the eight lugs. Cool look, if you ask me. I like the heavy duty stuff.
