Important Note on these Wheel Converters

PCD converters allow you to install wheels with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern on vehicles that originally have a 5x120 pattern, thus expanding the available wheel options. These adapters are very practical and work with both original and aftermarket wheels from popular brands like Japan Racing, BBS, OZ, and others.

What do these converters do?

These adapters act as an intermediary between the car's hub and the wheels:

• They allow changing the car's bolt pattern (e.g., from 5x120 to 5x114.3) so that wheels with a different PCD can fit.

• They also serve as spacers, adjusting the clearance between the hub and the wheel if necessary.

• They include complete hardware: typically come with bolts/studs for the hub and nuts to attach the wheel to the adapter for a secure installation.

This solution is ideal for those who want to use wheels with a different pattern without having to change hubs or other expensive components.

Compatibility

These converters are compatible with vehicles that have a 5x120 PCD and a hub center bore of approx. 72.6 mm — for example, many BMW E36, E46, E8X, E9X models and other similar vehicles.
