is this possible?

Some of the series 4 cars had 4 bolt hubs - think that was about the same pcd as the 5 bolt - so probably would fit.
 
Not entirely convinced I like them - they are a bit yes/no/yes/no  :D

A proper engineering shop would be able to re drill your hubs and then you suppliy new studs. Job done:Thumbsup!

I agree with Mr Kiwi, the 4 stud FC setup was designed with the poxy little brakes of the poverty spec US FC in mind :)

They\'re cool, but could be more work that you probably want to fit them!

However if you do, might take your wheels off you for a grinder price :D

Those wheels are butters!!

Excuse my ignorance but WTF does \'butters\' mean? :rollin

id suggest getting adaptors but that would require spacing those wheels out and they look like they have a rediculous offset. What about re drilling the wheels?

Do the hubs on the FC swap with something like the MX-3 which had a 4 stud pattern?

Would solve your problem if they did - plus my sis has an MX-3 so that could end up with the 5 studs!! ;)

L18M

good idea kiwi :Thumbsup!

dtheb: they wont need spacers, if anything need wider arches! they not the low dish rota jobs lol

cant re-drill wheels as not much to drill lol

ricco: hmm.. interesting idea. would take a while to save up and buy the cherryblossoms though. not cheap! cost more than my car! though bit worried i might see my car on bricks pretty quick if i did get them :Hammer

Maybe its better to get the Rota copies then? Cheaper, direct fit and no worries about them being Pikey\'d!

(There is nothing wrong with rota rims either ;))

mx3 / 323(f) are all 4 x 100 pcd sadly!

Butters = lush or \'but ugly\'....depends! :)

i like \'em...

GLWTS conversion / fitting, keep us posted ;)

Sakura\'s are awesome! Hideously rare/expensive though. Do they even do them in 17"?
