A 5×114.3 to 5×100 wheel adapter allows you to install a 5×100 wheel on your vehicle without any problem. Before purchasing, there are several figures you need to verify. Are the vehicle’s bolt pattern 5×114.3 (5×4.5″) and the wheel’s bolt pattern 5×100? Since they are different from 5×114.3 wheel spacers (that are 5×114.3 to 5×114.3). Is the thread pitch of your factory wheel studs the same as the pre-installed wheel studs of the adapters? Only the same thread pitch will allow for a full engagement. In addition to bolt pattern conversion, they would also push your wheels outwards from the hub assembly. This provides additional clearance for larger rims or wider tires. Besides, they would fix the rubbing issues of bigger brake calipers. Bolt-on wheel adapters are much safer. They come with two sets of bolts. The adapter bolts directly to your hub and then the wheel is secured directly to your spacer. Both spacer and the wheel are held on with a safe stud engagement which prevents the wheels from falling off.
Does My Car fit 5×114.3 to 5×100 Wheel Adapters?
Generally, as long as your vehicle’s bolt pattern is 5×114.3, and the wheel’s bolt pattern is 5×100, you can use a 5×114.3 to 5×100 wheel adapter. The simplest way is to check your car’s year/make/model, then search the result on an authoritative website. If you get several hand tools, we highly recommend you do some ground job, such as measuring the actual PCD, CB, thread pitch, rim pocket depth, stud length, and fender gap. The correct PCD (bolt pattern), CB (center bore), and thread pitch ensure a perfect fit. We have a MEASUREMENT GUIDE made by our tech staff here. Then the rim pocket depth, stud length, and fender gap determine how thick wheel spacers will fit your car properly. If the rim pockets depth + spacer thick ≥ stud length, these 5×114.3 to 5×100 wheel adapters will fit properly. You don’t have to cut any studs. Using a straight edge metal ruler to measure the fender gap is a good idea to get the wheels out of rubbing against the wheel well.
