I have a set of BBS RS wheels i want to put on my 2002 but they are 5x120. I have seen people do a 5 lug conversion but I am not sure where to start. Does anyone know what parts and from what car I will need? TIA

I want to know as well. Potential buyer of my wheels has the same question.

AJ, I think you need adapters, but I was told they might be $100/piece. Other can chime in.

look on ebay I have seen adapters for the 4x100 to take the 5x120. I don't know how much wheel you are going to try to stuff under there but it won't take alot with out mods.

He's thinking of stuffing 17x7.5s under there.. Not sure how that'll work out.

Typically anything past 8" will either hit the inside of the fender well, or hit the strut. Spacers to get past the strut would only make rubbing the fender lips worse. I doubt the fenders will handle them even rolled. You would have to cut and add turbo type flairs beyond that.

It's one of those things like... just because you can doesn't mean you should. The cost outweighs the advantage IMO.
