    I've been talking about doing this for a while. You should totally do it.

                I always ask myself this when I see a crown pass by.
                Do it and share!

                    Yep, up until current, all 4-lug Fords are 4x108. I wanted to run these, and was seriously bummed when I found that out.

                        Ahem, these actually good.

                            OZ superturismos are very similar.

                                all 4 lug fox body wheels are 4x108 which is why you need to redrill. but redrilling a 4 lug wheel is easier than filling and redrilling a 5lug for 4lug application. also the fox offsets are e30 friendly.

                                one warning, replica wheels are cheap, but heavy

                                        Do these come in 16? Hell - I could see putting off going to 5-lug with these. What year saleen did these come on?

                                                        You could probably use wobble bolts to go from 4x108 to 4x100. I wouldn't recommend it on a track car though (obviously).
