Hi bros, as per my subject. Can anyone advise the solution to fix a 5 lug rim onto 4 lug? is there a spacer that can solve the problem?

Depends on how much u wan e rims on ur car. Can be done but costly n time consuming.

There is no way you can safely put a spacer conversion (even those that come with their own wheel studs) from 4 to 5 or vice versa, I wouldn't drive very hard in a vehicle that did that.

If you're talking about conversion ie. changing the 4-lug hubs to a 5-lug setup, however way you achieve it (be it change the entire arm assembly or just the hub+lugs ) then it's not longer 4-lugs liao, so 5-lug rim onto converted 5-lug hub is a no-brainer issue.

Of course provided correct PCD lah, later get some unusual European spec 104x5 that's it, find rims also can bang wall.

hey thanks for all advice bro. I have tot of changing the hub but there's no hub that can fit for this car like dc2 onto eg.. sigh think i'll probably keep my rims at home and use it as coffee table.
