marriedman Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 I know this may be a stupid question, but I have to ask anyways. Better to be thought a fool for a moment than a remain one for a lifetime. Is a 5th gen front wheel a direct swap with a 6th gen that has ABS? Quote
0 Veefer800Canuck Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Yes. The ABS wheel, if it comes with discs, will have a tone ring for the ABS pickup. That is all. Other than that, straight swap. You can remove the tone ring since you don't need it. Quote
0 marriedman Posted February 25, 2014 Author Posted February 25, 2014 That is awesome news! Looking at a 6th gen and I really want to keep my powder coated rims from my 5th. I really didn't want to go back to black. Quote
0 wera803 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Other than that, straight swap. You can remove the tone ring since you don't need it.Sounds like he is going the other way. Yes, he could use his fifth gen wheels on the 6th gen, but would need the 6th gen rotors with the tone ring. Quote
0 Veefer800Canuck Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Oh right, misread that. What he said. Quote
0 marriedman Posted February 25, 2014 Author Posted February 25, 2014 yeah, either way, thanks guys. Quote
