i wouldnt say they are "very illegal"
if they are bolt on, they could be engineered...

No, they can't be engineered.
Spacers between the rim and the rim mounting face are illegal in all states.

Make sure they are close to hub centric, and have spigots to locate the new rim on too.
Make sure you have about 8 turns per nut too.

See how this one doesn't have a lip
And these 2 do
And make sure the hole in the middle is as close to the size of the hub.
But come to think of it, a 4 to 5 stud changer would require one of the original studs to be used, so you'd need an extra long stud...
In the long run, you'd be better off to fit 5 studs to your car.

$50 i think from tempe.
I didn't ask about them retaining the hub-centricness tho, because I didn't care

Is this necessarily a good thing, to get cheap and nasty spacers?
