How can I gel 5-lug rims on my 7?
As most of you know, the early model 7's come with just 4-lug rims. Is there an adapter that I can get that will allow 5-lugs as well as making wider tires possible? It's just that I don't feel like pulling the rims from a huandai or sumthin.

The only sketchy thing here is it looks like they only get held on by three lugs?

Damn, thats expensive. But it is held on by 4, the one is a stud that goes all the way through.
