Not to be a smart ass, but "5" and "8" are different.

You need to find rims with a 5 x 135 bolt pattern. They are kind of an oddball size, so you may need to do some looking. They do make adapters to go from 5 lug to various 6 lug patterns, but not to 8. It is a much bigger bolt circle, and probably wouldn't be safe.


Here's a link to a good bolt pattern guide.

the guy told me they were like a universal bolt pattern rim so i figured i would ask some of you guys. i appreciate the info but the tires were not worth buying like he said so it was not as good of a deal as he made it seem
