yeah you could run them and yeah you would need over fenders because a 2 inch spacer is 50mm

Well knowing the offset of the wheels in question would make it much easier to determine how much of your wheel is going to be sticking out form the fender, but I can imagine you will need to do a ridiculous pull of your fenders or go to overfenders/fender flares to make it look right.

Also, do the 5 lug swap legit, those adapter plates are only going to add more strain to the hubs and you will probably end up buying new hubs or bearings after they get trashed from the proposed setup. Plus that 2 inches of adapter is surely going to screw up any possibility of getting a nice wheel fitment.

Over Fenders To Fit Your Spaced Wheels?

:/

Sell The Wheels, Overs, And Get Some Decent Fitting 4 Lugs.

Agreed.

18s look like s*** on S13s 99.99% of the time anyway.
