5 lug conversion for a 98 cl

Hey could anyone tell me if it's possible to do a 5 lug conversion to a 98 3.0 cl w/ 4 lugs. I think acura put out cl's in 98 that actually had 5 lugs, but my specific car is a 4 lug.

The 1997-1999 (1st Gen) CL only had a 4-lug hub.

You really can't find the rims you want in 4 lug? You can't be serious. Why would you EVER convert you lug pattern? There are billions of rims on the market, and if the ones you found are only 5 lug, i'm sure some other company makes the exact same thing or damn close in a 4 lug.

ok forget that idea . I just thought for some reason my car came in 5 lug also in that year. Don't know where I got that idea from. Otherwise that would be an easy swap I thought .

Perhaps yeah if there was 5 lugs, but first gens never had that. It still would be pointless even if it were simple though :P
