    What are you going to nitpick me? I know the 5 lug options and so does everyone else so save it.

      There's nothing wrong with what he said. In fact, he probably nailed 95% of this board. He didn't say adapters were a real 5 lug setup.

        I would ask A rally enthusiast to try them out. Offer two sets, one to test, one to keep and see how it goes, If it works sell them to us. It will make the real 5 lug havin people be that much cooler.
        Pretty much they will fly like a volvo lip.
        huh??????
        if he pulled it off it WOULD be a REAL 5 lug! he isn't talking about adapters.

          It wouldn't be cost effective to machine new hubs. Steel is something like 3 dollars a pound. You need a big chunk of high grade steel to machine hubs out of it. I've researched this. There's just no way you could do it without having it cost a ton of money.

          BTW, I work at a machine shop as well...

          I'm working on something like this too.
