| Nissanaholic!  | 4 lugs suck.. oh, wait i have 4 lugs yeah, 5 lugs = more rim choices, but you still CAN find good rims for 4 lugs, it's just a little more tough and less choices, easier if you're not picky/poor/cheap... i've found my set of rims that i like in 4 lugs so i don't have a need for 5 lug... there really isn't any other real pros/cons besides rim selection... |
