1984 B250 Lug, wheel and misc questions

Hello,

My lug pattern seems to be 4 and 1/4" on 5. I have seen vans of this vintage with aftermarket rims but I don't see any with that lug spacing for sale anyplace. Ideas? I wanted some wider rims outback. Anyone know what the max back spacing and tire size is on the rear of these vans?

I also wondered if there is a place other than the dealer to get the rear door seals, the side door seals and the vent wing seals. My vent wings and rear doors leak like mad.

I also want to put on a set of headers and dual exhaust. I know that I need need cat.s on each side of the exhaust, but does anyone know if the headman standard hedders are any good, and if not who else make an affordable set of quality ones?

Any help on any of this stuff would be greatly appreciated. I am kind of new to the dodge/mopar scene.

Sorry can't help on the wheels,But you can get your seals at www.steelerubber.com and their #is 800-544-8665.
As far as Headers I wouldn't give 50 cent for a headman,I bought a set for my Chevy Truck and the fit was poor had to file some bolt holes and were welded crooked and one was longer than the other,A 129.00 thrown in the trash. I bought a set of Dynomax coated headers better quailty but a little more 259.00 but worth the price,You can get these at www.summitracing.com ,I found on my 86 conversion van there isn't enough room on the right side of the fuel tank to run a pipe,Therefor it would have to dump out in front of the tires. I chose not to do that because of excessive noise at cruising speed for long distance road trips.
Hope I've helped a little !
