Now the current 4x100, 5x100, 5x112 etc have alot better availability and are starting to have some decent offset offerings as well.

Couldn't agree more.
I would have loved turbo twists on mine but went with 4x100 for several reasons.
once you go 5x130 your limited to Porsche only so not much of a range and all on the exy side.
Not only that offsets and widths are a problem, nearly all turbo twists are 17x7et55 on the front which works fine but 9" on the rear is a problem if you want to keep stock fenders.
4x100 rims in 17" are nearly always 7" et40-45 so fit bugs with stock fenders beautifully.
Nearly every small to medium car from mid 80s till 00s was 4x100 or 4x114.3 so choice is almost unlimited and they are always forsale both second hand or new
If I ever do it again though I will probably go 5x100 or 5x114.3 though as they're becoming more mainstream
