I have 24" Intro Rockman wheels that have a 6 lug bolt patern, I want to swap out the Center of the rim for a 5 lug bolt patern because im buying a new truck.
Intro told me they dont swap out the Centers and re-use the hoop, only will swap out the centers and add a new hoop.
does anyone know of any other wheel manufacturers who will take out the center and weld in a new center with a different bolt patern?
any help is appreciated.

That is going to be near impossible since the design of the wheel is all cut together with the bolt pattern. You can generally go from different 5 lug bolt patterns to another 5 lug bolt pattern or go from a 6 lug to a different six lug. The hoops can be changed because it is welded on after. The only way I can think of is to make an adapter that goes from five lug to six lug, but I am still not sure how that will work, though am guessing it will basically be the same thing most guys do with duallys, go from 8 lug to the big 10 lug 18-wheeler bolt pattern. Try contacting Arrow-Craft, they make the dually adapters.

its for a 2001 f-150 with a 5 lug patern, what i want to do is take out the 6 lug center and replace it with a 5 lug center with a new different design.
any company do this?

seems to be a ton easier/cheaper to swap the front of the truck so it's a 6-lug to match your expensive ass wheels instead of trying to modify the wheels themselves.

The hoop is the cheap part of the wheel, and in order to get the center out they cut the welds, so the hoop is basically trashed. I had one of my old set of rims rehooped once at intro and with a new polish and ceramic clearcoat it was $200, so the hoops are the cheaper part of the wheel
The rockman's design isnt based on the lug pattern, it stays the same whether its 5 or 6 lug...but they wouldnt weld up the holes and drill new lug pattern, wouldnt be nice or safe.....pretty much need new rims, or change the lug pattern on the truck

You'll be better off just selling the wheels and buying new ones.
