I don't get it. Spacers are fine, but adapters are instant death. In my simple mind, an adapter made of quality material with quality fabrication and attached with quality hardware should be just as capable as an spacer of equal quality.
Granted, you have one less lug to carry the load, but if this is a factor then all stock four lug setups should be suspect. Somebody clue me please.

oops, just realized I'm off topic in the FS/WTB Fourm. Moving to the Garage.

Until AA made theirs or rather had theirs made, they were all a death trap... Not instant death as you put it but I have seen them break at an autocross and drop a car onto it's belly exposing the fact that the guy had adaptors. They were against the rules. Imagine highway speeds and you get my point.
If ric is looking here, he is not looking to pay what AA charges for theirs.
Try Samba if you must have them.

Oh, and spacers aren't fine. The H&R ones yes, but there are dangerous spacers too...
