Hi @brotys,
I purchased 2x 6 stud rims only 3 weeks ago from CAMEC in Brisbane, bit pricey, but needed them.
I measured that on my 14.44-5 it lowered them 125mm.
I had a bit of excitement as with the electric brakes, the rims were too small to fit over the brake drums.
Neccessity is the mother of invention; I used 2 x 3/4"unc nuts on each stud as spacers and also bought some mag wheel lug nuts.
The lug nuts have extra reach and this worked a treat for me to get into a garage for long term storage.
As you can see, I'm not reknown for my photgraphic skills, but at least you get the concept.
Lug nuts go up tight and secure for the distnace travelled, 1 x 3/4" nut removed for clarity.
Hope this helps in some way.
Steve
