i would like to convert an E30 into a 5 lug. i've of people doing this conversion, but i would like to know what do i need in order to do it. i've also heard of an adapter that fits the 4 lug to convert it to 5, but i dont know if its true.

hello cuts, and welcome 
5 stud conv, not as easy as it sounds or weԚ´d all have em
4 to 5 conv. plate does exist and a few lads have em on theirs, .. same as a spacer really, just that u can put the "cooler" wheels on after ;)
plates off ebay now and then,..
to do a 5 lug as standard, u need either.
M3 front and rear shock arms, with bearing of course
or
Front and rear from a E36 Compact.
apparently compatible with an E30, so if u can source it, sort it!
