The front 4-lug hubs are everywhere, in every flavor and price range. It seems the rear hubs for the four bolt lug pattern have been largely ignored by the aftermarket manufacturers and suppliers.
They are out there, but only from people charging full retail for SKF, Timken/FAG, etc...
I had no problems finding great deals on the front. FAG for $60. If anyone has a line on some 4-lug rear hub/bearings for a reasonable deal, let me know.
I I am almost ready to go to 5-lug rear hubs since they are easy to come by, and I can find Cetus rims to match my existing OEMs easily. That would leave the fronts 4-lug for a while. When I am ready to change out the Cetus rims I would go to five lug front hubs. At that point there will be two full sets of four lug Cetus rims posted for sale here.
Thanks.

I had a guy on ebay that agreed to a price of $135.00 for both rear hubs, 4-Bolt, and he sold them to someone else.
I am going to look a little longer, so if anyone has any, or knows someone who does, let me know.
This may become my excuse to do the complete 5-Lug bolt pattern transition. At that point there really will be very little of the '93 specificity left, other than the headlights and rear bumper.
This will also free up my wheel and tire options immensely.
