yes it can be done, and why bother?

there 100's of nice mags for 4 stud and most 5 stud mads u see com ing 4 stud.
also the amount of $$$ u are gonna spend on changing the stud patern, u could spend geting the 5 stud mags redrilled.

You can do it, but theres a fair bit involved, you will need new stub axles for the front end, mine came as part of a kit for front brakes, then you will need to either restud your gemi axles, around $420ish as a ring needs to be welded round the outside to put the stud pattern on, or you can get commodore axles and shorten and respline them, that $260 worth at an engineer i know of. However if you're only doin it for the mags don't bother, i'm doing it as i already had the mags and it is simpler for some parts, plus i have the upgraded brakes from commodores, however the brakes couldve been done for 4 stud anyways. Hope that explains it to you...

gene dont get to cocky or ill have to humiliate ur ass in my ISUZU power gemi.

and why do you think they put them in trucks, gene? would it be because they have the pulling power of an N/A engine?
