Well I think there are two different ways of doing this now. One way is to buy the adapters that are being sold, Which I believe work similar to a wheel spacer in that it is a disk that goes behind the wheel, but actually bolts into the original bolt pattern and then has new holes drilled for the new 5 bolt pattern. The only downside I have heard expressed about this system is that some people are afraid of the integrity of this if it used at the track, Way two that I have seen people post just as "What-if's" so far is to actually take the hub assemblies off a 5 bolt car and put them on the 9k. This way would necessitate new rotors at least and I don't know, but might actually necessitate different calipers as well, but I'm not sure of brake sizes on both these cars so I can't say. Well I hope this helps~
