Hey a while back I saw somewhere on the internet a 4 to 5 lug conversion....but all it was, was a spacer that bolted on with 4 logs but before you would bolt the 4 lugs in you would put 5 lugsbolt through the other side .
Hard to explain and I wish I had pics but I can't find the web site.
Well my point is has anyone seen these and are they dangerous??
I've seen them for mostly 240sx.....but if I want to find them cause my brother has come across a set of s2000 rims and the possiblities are VERY intruiging!!

 

Come on man, don't buy spacers just get a type-r swap. You should know already that there isn't much space for the wheel to come out if your car is lowered. I'm assuming that you will be putting the s2000 rims on the EG (you are in the 92-95 forum)

 

I don't think I would trust the spacers for that. Seems kinda dangerous.

 

don't trust those adapter plates!

i've seen them snap in 2 (or more peices), do an entire brake swap, trust me you will be much more happy with the results

 

My buddy with a Volkswagen had them and one day all the wheel fell of while he was driving..... not very reliable! $2500 insurance claim!

 

lololol when will kids learn

 

well the only reason that I asked was that I've never had a guy show up at my door with balloons and a check so money is an issue. and I don't know if you've seen the going price of a type r swap.
And aside from that I'm not sure that the s2000 and integra typeR have the same bolt pattern.
But judging from what everyone is saying they are a risk anyway.

Why are people allowed to sell BOBO-ASS shit like that anyway??

 

wtf the point of a 5 lug isnt the extra lug that you get, its the bigger brakes that it comes with

 

well thats just peachy but the argument wasn't about brakes or justifying a five lug conversion it was about the safety of the spacer conversions if thats what we can call them.

But thank you for your concern for the misproper use and understanding of "the five lug conversion"

:bigok:

 

I think H&R made a 4 to 5 lug conversion spacer. I thought it was neat, but quite expensive. I was thinking that would be cool because I would be able to run Porsche wheels on my BMW.
