Default 4 x 4.25??? wheel question

What cars came with this bolt pattern? I'm looking at some 13"by 5.5" enkei wheels like this, but they aren't 4 x 100.
They're brand new too. Old school Gold mesh/polish lip
I'd like to know if I should buy them and take them to get a 4x100 bolt pattern or some kit to convert them...
Is it worth the trouble?
thanks,
Andy

Hmmm, thats like 4x108 (actually 107.95). But anyways, you'd have to have a machine shop re-drill to 4x100. Hope they get that pattern centered correctly. And ideally, you'd want to have seats pressed into the new lug holes. Seems like too much trouble unless they were free/cheap and you have a hookup with a good machinist.

They're $100 bucks.
I'll spill the beans on the location of them. To whomever gets them goodluck.

I think it might be worth the hassle.

Not bad looking for the price.

Yeah, they'd have to be drilled in the unused space between the existing lug holes. And looking at the last pic, that will be in the "lightened" part of the hub mounting face. Probably not a good idea since its significantly thinner there. And also one would think it might be "weird" for the area around the lugs to have no immediate contact with the hub face.

For some reason I wouldn't trust/feel safe driving with a machined to fit wheel...bro honestly you are better off buying some true 4x100 wheels.

Dang I hate to pass them up, but don't want to ruin a brand new set by redrillin either.
They look dang good, but they could be a little wider.
Why the heck do they have to be that funky size???huh?

You could go to a junk yard and get a second set of hubs/rotors/drums and have them redrilled at a machine shop to that size, then you could essentially (with a little work) be able to run 2 different bolt patterns

They're so nice lookin. Someone give them a good home.
I don't know any machinists off the top of my head that would give me a good price and that I could trust.
