    Wondering - 5 x 114.3 (5 x 4.5) fitment

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I am curious if anyone has put 5 x 114.3 (5 x 4.5") wheels on their vehicle?
    If so, how did you do it?

    I saw someone at a C&C a few sundays ago with an older Jetta that was sporting some nice C4 Corvette vented wheels. He said he didnt need to do really anything... and I didnt get much from there because he was leaving

    I am not looking to change wells, I am just trying to find a spacer to fit my vehicle. Autozone has spacers but they are all for 5x114.3 (5x4.5") setups
    So any help would be great.

    Thank you
    But let me ask you
    The setup I am wondering about is a standard 5x112 bolt pattern that we have now.... put a 5x114.3 spacer in... use the stock 5x112 wheel

    is there a way to make the spacer fit?

    probably a lot cheaper/easier to just get some 5x112 spacers, ebay has them cheap or expensive depending what you want. For wobble bolts you'd probably pay loads more than you need to. You could get the 5x114.3 spacers and open the holes out or redrill them but that would just be hassle and not worth the time.

    No, the bolts go into the car at 5x112. That is how the wobble bolt works. 5x112 spacers, wobble bolts, and your 5x114.3 wheel.

    Bing. Bang. Boom.
