    lol, prepare to drop some guap on proper adapters.. mine weren't cheap and 20mm is simply too big for the front, IMO.

    far as I know, there isn't an adapter that will go from 4x100 to 5x120.

    There is however, the 1552 design DUH or Double-Up Hub kit, then adapters from 5x100 to 5x120.

    We actually have both solutions available - 4x100 -> 5x120 adapters or our new DUH system.

    I can see reading is not your forte



    Dubtech08, you should have bought 205/40 Falken 512s and you would have been happy

    Fitment looks good what size adapters did you go with for the 8.5's? I'm planning on picking up a set in the near future
