No, the bolt pattern of a Lexus spacer is NOT the same as Dodge. For example, the Lexus IS uses a 5×114.3mm bolt pattern while the Dodge Challenger uses a 5x115mm bolt pattern. Even though the lug bolt patterns are very similar, the different center bores might not fit over the wheel hubs. The hub bore on a Lexus IS300 is 60.1mm while the center bore on a Challenger is 71.6mm. In this case, a 5×114.3 to 5×115 wheel adapter is the solution.
Wheel adapters are very useful for converting the bolt patterns, center bores, and changing the offset. Since these Lexus spacer adapters are installed between the hub assembly and wheels, they will make your wheels stick out a certain distance. If your new wheels stick in the fender a lot, then using thicker Lexus 5×114.3 to 5×115 wheel adapters will push the wheels out further to get flush with the fender flares. This also provides a muscular and powerful look.
