Default wheeel spacers and lug conversions

Wheel spacers and adapters. I want to know if there is an adaptor that allows someone to use five lugs to convert to six? The reason why is cuz I'm looking into getting hummer beadlocks and tires. Just wanted to know if the was anyone out the who has or is?

Look online, there are companies that will build adapters to your spec......you could run 8 lug if you wanted to.

Check out : Trail Worthy Fab

Instead of dealing with an extra set of adapters, they sell those beadlocks with the center sections cut out and various different bolt patterns installed, as well as rock rings. I think they can even adjust the BS on them.

On the website linked above? Under the heading Hummer Wheel Centers? But those are for people who want to DIY. Toward the top of that page are the options for them modifying the rims and just shipping them to you.

If you just want an adapter, type the conversion into any search engine. (like: 5x5 to 8x6.5 adapters )
