cant see the pics, but I assume hes just redrilling the hub for 5 lug. It would work, but id rather just get the correct hubs so I dont have the studs off by 1-2 mm each

that has got to be the dumbest,most unsafe thing i have ever seen done to a 240 none the less an automobile. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TRY THIS! if you cant afford a five lug conversion stay 4 lug and safe.

4-lug ftw anyways... Tenzo is what I have and they are good offset, 4lug (they have in 5 too), 18x8/18x9.5 staggered.

lol, id 5lug but $$ not worth it.

I would just stay four lug. You can find way cooler wheels anyways.
