Not sure if this is what your looking for, but you can get hub adapters to change from 4 stud to 5 stud fitment. The adapters are approved, but many people say they are not safe. I belive someone on this board changed to a 5 stud pattern by changing the complete front and rear assembly's with that from a e30 m3, or was it a e36 ? try a search. hope this helps. :D

Hi Mate, the easiest would be to swap over the E30 M3 running gear to get the 5 studs. Guys have done this on the site already, one of will be along to give more details.
cheers

E36 Z3 / Compact stuff will fit too as the rear suspension setup is the same as the E30
