Yes u can do 5x114.3 but u need a converter. I have a set of 5x114.3 Also have the converters. The rims went on like a champ. Sold the rims and the converters. Got new rims and still waitin for the converters to come in. lol

Alright the the converter is a space and it widens the lug pattern from 100 to 114.3. It come as a kit. space/converter, lugs, and lug bolts. U put the lug in the spacer. In the back of the space there are special inputs for them. Next put the spacer/converter on ur stock lugs like u would a rim. The nuts that came in the kit are used on u stock lug nuts. Tighten down. Then put ur new rims on, tighten them and roll out.
The kits looks like this:

jus be careful and explore more. I was going to do that, bu i have read so many bad reviews from this. If not don right, one of your tires can shoot out while driving.

the difference is these have a lip around the center where as it can seat on the rim more securely.
 these are relying on just studs to hold the wheel on (no center ring)  im guessing thats what hubsentric would mean |
