The reallity is you're unlikely to find any that fit properly - reliant is 4 inch, nearest fit are 100mm, which bends the studs. Apparently you can get things called "wobble nuts" which can move around relative to the stud, i have no knowledge of these. Also you can bolt adaptor plates to the hubs, if you use these make sure they're steel. Redrill the hubs and drums to 12mm is my answer - safer and cheap too.

Thanks for the info. I am going to re drill to take 12mm studs. I'm doing the conversion to golf callipers and nova discs on this one.
Since posting also considering 16" wheels with tyres to bring to same diameter as fitting 17" wheels. Should be a more comfortable ride.

I'm on 15 inchers, with tall, stiff sidewalls, at 15 psi.

Ooo I'll have to check, but I studied the tyre charts to find the tallest ones that would fit the wheels i had, and then looked for the stiffest sidewalls. They're chinese mud and snows, will check tomorrow.
