you can get adapters, but they will have to be spacers as well, h&r should have them, or you can get custom ones for about 75 each, make sure the ones you get are hubcentric on both sides

yes and no, yes that they move the wheel outwar, and that it adds stress to the rotating parts, since the wheels is out farther than the car is set up for, make sure you buy quality stuff, it also increases the scrub radius and some turning geometry.... blah blah, but i wouldnt worry unless your tracking your car
