Pretty much nobody.

Search the topic and you'll quickly see why nobody considers them a viable option.
There are a couple of right ways to do 5-lug conversion - but adapters is the wrong way.

I wouldn't have them on a car, and I wouldn't care to share the road with a car so equipped.

It might be an OK concept if a reputable company made them, but none ever did. 914's already have offset and fender clearance problems, and adding spacers to increase the track just makes it worse. Unless you want to run wheels even narrower than the 4-lugs - and then what did that buy you?

I don't want to rain on your parade but you really need to rethink this idea.

(BTW - Welcome to the Club!)
