I could get some hub centric rings, and that should work on my '01 (assuming that the 5x4.75 bolt circle would be close enough). But, I have a feeling that I'll not get new tires anytime soon (however, I have to get new valve stems, as I have a recurrent problem with leaks, though I've re-cored all stems at least twice).
Would that bolt circle work? I dig those black Cragars but according to their website they don't make a 17" 5x120mm version. Seems that would be a tiny bit smaller than 5x4.75.
