those are only 5x114 to 5x114 adapters/spacers.. they are used to space the wheel out on your existing 5x114 bolt pattern car.. problem w/ these is that most aren't hubcentric to your wheels or car and even after using the correct lugs to mount they still may cause vibrations..

the ones they have to change your pattern from 4to 5lug are much larger then that. they are usually almost 2inches wide and will make your wheels stick out a lot.

Yup. You are always best just getting the right rims and saving a world of headaches dealing with large adapters.

if you are looking at doing it properly you can have the adapter/spacer custom built and it will only be about an inch in a half thick or less. but then you would have to get wheels with a high offset to make it work. Not really worth it. Custom adapters/ spacers cost a lot more too.
