hmmm... 1959 9000? You have a pretty early prototype there! lol
I asked about switching to 5-lug hubs on here once (I kinda like how the 9-5 Aero 3-spoke wheels look on the 9000), and the general consensus was it would be best to switch out the whole hub for a 9-5 unit... with that would go the strut assembly, etc... quite involved! I don't know about re-drilling... I personally don't like wheel spacers very much, and like adapters even less. It is just adding one more potential thing to go wrong in a very critical area. Since we are out here talking about doing stuff like this, I would suspect that we occasionally drive fast, making this risk even less desirable.
