5 lug down to 4 lug (S5)
Hello, I have a 1990 Gtu, and i was wondering how hard it would be to go from 5x114.3 to 4x114.3. Obviously this isn’t a favored choice, but i love the old school 4 lug rims, and finding that style in 5x114.3 seems to be impossible or very expensive. Would this be a hard swap to do? What all would be needed to complete this swap?

Smells like 2 stroke.

IIRC Aaron Cake has 4 lugs with Turbo II/GXL calipers on front. I'm not sure if he's running the stock 4 lug rotors out back though. Solid rotors suck IMHO because I don't think they handle heat as well.

First, there are many old school wheels that can fit.
You may run into issues with offsets with old school wheels too.
I think you're not factoring the expense of running down (and downgrading) to 4-lug stuff.
