will cost you more in money and time to go from 4 to 5 stud, than it will to buy those wheels in 4 stud..
or you could do the dodgy and weld up old holes and get the hubs retapped to 5 stud..
you would really want to be sure that your hubs aren't going to break tho.
would you risk your life, possibly flipping the car at highway speed, just to have 5 stud rims from a shed?

Decent wheels in 4 stud ARE hard to find - the only options I found were either 3 piece, or some Jap ones at a hideously inflated price. So I went 5 stud, and bought some Aussie made wheels instead

you can get adapter plates made up. Dont know how legal or safe it is and i assume you would need the guards rolled. I'm still thinking about it.

Yes you can. No they're not legal. Plus it's a bugger to go from 4 to 5 stud with them...
