    Im sure you can buy adapters to do that. Id look on Ebay & see if anyone makes something for that. Oh here is a site that may help too.

    Why would you want to run 6 lugs? the rims are more expensive and there are less of them and there are not as many different offsets...

    You do the the 5 lug toyota is a 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern that is used on a ton of cars... mostly fords... there is no point is switching to six lug!

    Spend your money on something worth doing....!

    I was wondering the same thing? most people that have Mazda's and Nissan's swap theres to Toyota hubs so they will have a wider variety of wheels and such

    I do agree. I can't find custom rims for mine. mine is a six lug, 14" rims.

    guess so.

    yeah, i was lookin around and i agree, it would be pretty much pointless for me to do that conversion. but i still think escalade rims would be pretty sick...
