have you guys heard of any horror stories about billet wheel adapters? i'm thinking about getting the dodge charger srt wheels and putting them on my commander. and i need to get 5x127 to 5x114.3 pattern conversion to get the wheels to fit.

I would advise against it. Nothing is as truly good as getting the correct bolt pattern.

it puts strain on the front and rear ends and once the wheels are on it is hard to make sure you have all the lugs tight. Worked in the tire business and if you had them you would have to leave, because too many have had them fall/break off. you are better off changing the hubs on your Jeep
