I don't think you are going to be able to change to a 17 in rim. All the Limited series had a larger center hub hole, no other Buick rim would fit only the limited series. If you start digging into the limited series you will find that not much will interchange from the standard Buick to the Limiteds,Brake drums are larger, Berings are different Brake shoes are larger, Shocks are different, all suspension is different. I have had and owned a lot of Buick over the last 30 years, but never had a limited series simply for this reason, parts were so difficult to locate, don't get me wrong they are a great car,but you must have paitience when looking for parts and information.<P>Jim Schilf / palbuick@aol.com

You hae the right procedure, grinding off the old welds and pressing out the old joints, installing new with the large nut. I had to do this with my 66 Wildcat. Best to have a machine shop do the work, you wil ned a good press for the in and out process.<P>Jim Schilf / palbuick@aol.com
