Anybody attempted or successfully done this as all pcd wheel adapters are intended for bolt not stud use and I'm sick of looking at the same crappy 4x100 wheels all the nice ones are 5 stud Sad.
If anybody has any advice that would be great I tried the search function but nothing came up.

I believe Stracher motorsports had designed 5x114.3 hubs for the R. Another option to consider but probably expensive.

You could do a pcd adaptor from 4x100 to 5x100, similar been done for vw etc.
Possibly would be custom, Mike had a post on pcd spacers & one offs .
Other option is one off spindles for the hubs.
Also look at xtrail hubs/spindles, they 5x114.3 & as 4wd could use front & rear if lend themselves to a graft/spindle graft !

My issue with the adapters mr b was that I can't find one to accept studs from the pulsars hub they all rely on bolts although I'd of thought if they had recessed holes and some kind of small lug nut to fit flush it would have worked but none if them have recessed holes so I'm back at square one !!! May look at the xtrail hubs although it's appearing to be more hassle than it's worth thanks anyway guys

Yeh I think it would be custom one off adaptors to work with studs shortened & slim sunken nuts, may even need one longer stud to share hole..
I think best way is custom spindle really.

Edit:
Heres link to miles thread on custom spacer/adaptors

Just a thought I had, no idea if been done or possible/particularly viable but worth a look & uk guys got access to xtrail easily enough.
