: Wobble bolts to fit 5x114.3 on my Bu's 5x110

I have an extra set of 300M Special 18 inch rims that I'm considering fitting on my 08 2LT V6 Bu. I luv the look of these rims however they're 5x114.3. If I use spigot/hubcentric metal rings for perfect centering, anyone know if there are Wobble/PDA lugs that will allow me to fit the 114.3 wheels on my Bu's 5x110?

Another solution would be to add 5x110 to 5x114.3 wheel adapter with integrated hubcentric rings. However the adapter would be 0.75"-1" thick. Thus wheels would move outward.

Anyone know the bolt length on the Malibu (ie. the length that protrudes out of the rotor)?

Advice please?

That is a big difference, I would NOT use rings to make those fit.

The bolt pattern is different, unless you can have the rims re-drilled adapters would have to be used which can cause the problem of the wheel sticking out farther than it should and possibly allow the tires to rub on body panels.

with any car, never use any wheel unless its the same bolt pattern, period. its just stupid. look up on youtube there is a great clip of someone who had all 4 wheels fly off his car because all the bolts snapped on him while driving.

Agreed 100%.
