sambooka Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Well they more than likely make them in a 4 stud what make are you after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack92 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 You can get around that by using custom made adapter plates, however these can make a bargain set of wheels silly money, think they are around £80 for a set if not more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimdonovan01 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 I was looking at something like these.. http://www.wheelbasealloys.com/17_samurai_d1r_black_red__1376 Or maybe 7 spokes*** Oh and just after I posted this, i found these 4 stud to 5 stud adapters, are these what I would be looking for? http://www.performancealloys.com/alloy-search-results.aspx?ModelID=3508&PCDID=32&tab=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack92 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 They are the ones, you do however have to match to your current pcd and required pcd and decide on a thickness as it could cause the wheels to poke out a fair bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mordey Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 On the wheelbase site if you fill out the "Easy Wheel & Tyre finder" it will show you what fits your car, The 17 inch samurai is one of them. Page 3... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimdonovan01 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 I've been on wheelbase a few times, put my car spec in.. A lot of the pictures are 5 stud wheels it just confused me. But yeah I do like that wheel a lot! Think it would look well on a black car? I'm a bit unsure about the red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcr1 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I think most of the time they're just stock photos... If you're that unsure contact them and ask :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Some are 5 stud photo's but are done in 4 stud, some are a multi-fit so have holes all the way round the centre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambooka Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I bought my alloys from wheel base showed 5 stud in the picture but I rang and checked and arrived 4 stud I nearly bought the white version of those alloys for my car but went for my second choice and I couldn't be happier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
