4 Lug Wheels

My friend has a Z car that has 4 lug wheels---I think that it is a mid 80's.

What must be done in order to switch to 5 lug wheels?

Thank you.

Sell them and buy some 5 bolts, that's the easiest and safest way.

So back to my original question---

What must be done in order to switch from 4 bolt wheels to 5 bolt wheels?

If there is room to play with the offset, then you can purchase some pcd/lug bolt on adapters.

My friend does not want to use adapters--so---

what must be done to his car in order to convert 4 lug wheels to 5 lug wheels?

Thank you.

If it is a Z31(1984-89) you can use the 87-89 hubs,they are 5 lug hubs.

So the 87--89 5 lug hubs will just swap out with the older 4 lug hubs?

Nothing needs to be done?

That's what the man said.

Yeah do what ben said... BTW this question would have been better to post in the classic Z section just letting you know.

Thank you for that.

I did not realize that I posted it in the wrong place.
