Was Just Woundering if this is possable to do this ..... I know you'r going to say why would you want to do that . Well i want nice deep dish 16 inch rims for my 86 z and i have noticed that 4 lug cars have a hug selection for deep dish rims that small. So I am just curious about this any info would help

Thanks Joe

1. They're called WHEELS. Rims is ghetto slang used by the lower class.
2. Of course you can go from a 5 lug to a 4 lug.

simple logic would dictate the the swap is reverse of the 4 to 5, but one issue you are msissing is that most 4 lug wheels are a high positive offset (+40 ish) and in a 4x100 bolt circle, the 4 lug z31 is a "mid" positive offset (+20, +30)and is a 4 x 114.3 bolt circle, there are far more wheel choices for a 5 lug z31 than a 4 lug
