You need to find a granada 4x4 to get the hubs off there a bit rare though.

Ive heard they actually are. But i guess they are expensive. And they are not easy to come by second hand. But there are no aftermarket spacers or adaptors that alter from 4 to 5 bolt fitment. At least not that i could find when i was looking for the same thing. Ive eventually got a set from a Scorpio 4x4. Its only the front ones that are hard to find. Rear ones are easy.

kw in germany makes 4x108 to 5x112 spacers. or else you weld the std hubs and re drill them to 5x112. a machine shop can help you.
