yes it is possible

but it depends on your wheel measurement

do a search on google on wheel adapters

a pair might run you 150+
depends on the thickness of the spacer, the conversion, hub hole

just do search on google for more info

My big question is WHY??????? would you want to....no one is going to notice nor care unless there on this site and see your car...personally i see it as a waste of money...and plus its not going to make your car any better

That is the only reason? you mean the 4 billion choices of 4 lug rims out there isnt enough?


i better not hear anything about performance reasons because theses cars will never see that much road racing to need a 5 lug nor get that much power to the groud to need it

I am comming to Scion from VW and I have your answer because we all wanted our 4-100 cars to accept those sweeeeeet euro 5-100 wheels.

I believe it's H&R in particular, but there are other european companies check out www.rpiequipped.com for more info, to purchase, or to find more sources.

The adaptor I am thinking of converts 4-100 to 5-100, plus its a 10mm spacer.

Hope that helps.
