You solved your own problem right there. Many people have gone down the 5 lug conversion in the past. I am sure there are DIY's for it outthere.

However I personally have always hated the look of those Rims. >_> to each his own though.

These are the 06 hybrid rims, They are magnesium and weigh less than 9 lbs.

The older hybrid rims from 01-05 weigh a tad more and are 4 lug, 14 x 5.5 +45mm

The only effective way would be a 5 lug conversion. Make sure you get the same 5 lug pattern though. Nothing would be as uncool as doing a 5 lug conversion and the wheels not fitting on. :lol:

Not on an EG chassis. You need a DC ITR or EK CTR.
