On the upside Rick, at least now you can comfortably run BMW wheels!

A 5x4.75 wheel will bolt onto a 5x120 lug pattern, but it puts an element of additional strain on the base of the lug. In theory, this could lead to accelerated lug failure. Many have claimed that they run 5x120 wheels on 5x4.75 lug pattern for many miles without failure, but as with anything, YMMV...
