Are you sure those come in 4x100? If those are Arthur Exhange MM-X, I believe they only come in 5 lug. I could be wrong. Regardless, those wheels do look pimp. If you can get them in 4 lug, go for it.

I think thats his cars way of telling him to do a 5 lug conversion

One thing tho, on the topic of lugs. I have some japanese Racing Sparco wheels and recently broke a wheel stud off in a lug and it took weeks to find a lug that sort-of works. My wheels require a small diameter ET lug with a long *** shank, which I have recently learned happens to be about the hardest lug to find (btw, if anyone knows a place that might have these, please let me know)

look for tuner lugs. gorrilaz makes them, rays makes them and then there is a whole bunch of off brands.

Just picked up a set of Gorillas yesterday actually. the shank is only about 1/3 as long as i need it though. its enough that i feel safer than driving on 3 lugs, but its still not perfect
