A wheel adapter is a round plate that fits on the wheel hub. Installing a wheel adapter allows the owner of a vehicle to alter the tire and rim size suggested by the manufacturer.

Dear Friend, Make sure you're using a wheel that has a 5 x 4.5" bolt pattern. If not you'll need wheel adapters (or conversion kits) for each wheel.


Can you put 5x5 wheels on 5x4.5?

You can get adapters to convert the 5x5 pattern to the 5x4.5. Most adapters are approximately 1.25 inches thick, so an adapter on each side will effectively widen the track an additional 2.5 inches unless you get a wheel that has the same amount of positive offset.
