5 stud adaptors

[rustybolt]

Is it possible to convert Clio mk2 172 to a 5 stud hub??

I know companys make these for other cars

help?

never seen any although you will prob be able to use the hub from a laguna as they use the same calipers on the front , the rears will be a different story , why go 5 stud?

Mk3s are 5-stud aren't they?

the RS-3 197 is 5 stud but uses a brand new suspension set up

loadsa comapnies make spacers that convert from 4-5 stud, its how the max power lot get big wheels on their car as most of them are 5 stud

can someone give a link to somewhere then? ive got to have a set of wheels ive seen, 5 stud only tho.

dont mind doing it as long as its safe and wont alter anyhing other than the stud pattern

It's safe so long as the bolts are all torqued. in terms of handling/rubbing you will need to select an offset to counter the additional width given by the adaptors.

any ideas of companies that can supply them??

I've got a feeling H&R and some other german suspension manufacturers do. Best to pick up a dub magazine as those boys are always using adaptors to fit audi/porsche etc rims on their golfs and polos.
