Default Question about wheel adapters

I have a chance to locally buy some chrome rims for my Lexus ES300 for cheap. However they are 4 lug universal and my lexus has 5 lug. Is it possible to buy adapters to go from 5 lug to 4 lug? And if so where would I be able to find these online? Thnks for your help guys.

there have been quite a few people to go the adapter route and it was alot of headache (especially the cheaper adapters that crack and break yadda).

You can get a set of wheels that were made for you car at a decent price.

Four lug wheels are not for Lexus. They are designed to carry the weight and stress of a lighter vehicle.

Pass on the wheels.

I don't see how 5 lug to 4 lug adapters would work at all. The spacing would need to be more than an inch.
