well, when yer ready to swap to 4 lugs let me know... haha

I would def stay 5-lug... there are plenty of 2 and 3 pc BBS rims around in 5x120 if you wanna go that route...

so, uh, when yer ready to sell those RMs... haha!

I would not convert back to 4 lug if I had 5.

That would be going backwards to me. More lugs are better.

You could look into getting the wheels drilled.

I did the 5lug with E36 parts and I'm not yet totaly satisfied with it.  If I were to put 5x120 bbs wheels with a nice lip on my car right now they would sick out.  I'm not a real big fan of that look.  Wish I could just have 2 cars.

Why aren't you satisfied with the conversion? I made adapters from 4x100 to 5x120 so i can put any 4x100 or 5x120 rims and no problems. :)

Going back to 4-lug would be a crime!!!

convinced to stay with the 5lug.  treehouse said they would sell me some blank CAB's so I can drill my own holes, so i can get that caster to where i want it.

if they were rs003's then i'd say sell your 5-lug and get 3" lips and go back to 4-lug.  rm's are made of play-do.
