Help: Spacer/adapter question for the experienced
 
Hi, i have a life long friend LA porsche dismantling who has donated any set of porsche rims to my fb Mariah widebody build - the Ultima car from 1983. Free is good. Actually free is GREAT. Also, turbo porsche rims compliment our cars lines.

Problem is Porsche runs 5 lug wheels with a big offset: +55 or +65 (I think).

My FB bolt pattern is gsl-se upgade 4 x 114.3. I need 10" wide rear and 8" wide front wheels.

I tend to knock spacers but 90% of the custom widebody porsches run pretty big spacers. And these are high dollar, high horsepower cars.

Can I run a 4 to 5 lug adapter/spacer to make up the offset on my FB? Anyone done it? I figure get the exact offset built into the adapter. Will it be a problem?

I have read threads for most of today and not found a specific answer....:Wconfused

Thanks, cliff
