question about bolt patterns
My friend with an '08 California Special, is in love with these rims:
From a 2002 Lighting I believe.
The bolt patter is 5x5.5 for the rims, and I think our cars are 5x4.5
Would they just stick out an inch, would it work at all? Does anyone know of a site to get those in our bolt pattern or anything that would make them work?
Thnaks for any help.

Doesn't the 5 x 4.5 mean there are 5 lugs and the circle of lug nuts has a radius of 4.5 in to the center of the nuts?

Good luck getting 5 lug 5.5" bolt circle to fit.
More important is the backspacing and offset.
But to answer the question, NO, 5 lug 5.5" bolt
circle on 5 lug 4.5" bolt circle axles will NOT work
unless they have some sort of insert that can be
rotated for both bolt circles. [:@]
