I would but I have looked and looked and most of the rims I like are in 5 lug. I think that I will just get the adapters unless I can get a conversion.

As long as it is a machined Billet Adapter you will be fine. The high offset 45mm Rim you want is perfect for a spacer/adapter that thick. the fronts may stick out a hair too much for most peoples taste, but if it is with something that has lip it may look just right.

Go for it. a little expensive but opens your options alot more.

Make sure it is a reputable company, and the lugs that attach to your hub are the right everything, as well as the studs coming of the adapter.

Good luck!

HOLY COW!!! Does anyone have any more info on these adapters, when, where, how much?!

If they come out.. i might not hafta sell my Enkeis!!!!! and thats cool how it'll push the wheel out more.. to fill up the gap on my xA. My enkeis are 40mm offset, so from what you guys've been saying, its perfect!

I really hope this all works out. and i'm pretty sure if it works on teh xB it'll work on the xA right? cuz thats one of the things the 2 share...

I'll be converting our 4x100 to 5x100 or 5x114.3

also, are there any safety issues?

Thx Guys!!

The nice thing is that on most wheels, the adapters will actualy end up pushing the wheel all the way to the fender. As mentioned above, you just have to make sure of the offset you start with. I dont think you ll be able to start with anything lower than a +40mm offset.

BTW, the company you want to look at is TC Sportline. I ll dig around for their info if you cant find it

Went to the website and didnt see em.. please help!
