4 lug to 5 lug

OK I emailed the company about 2 wheels an I can get the FWD Konig Rewinds in FWD in the color i like which is silver with a polished lip, the color I showed you.They have a +40mm offset, and also weigh 13lbs.
Then I asked about these

They have a +38mm offset and come solid silver, when I decide which ever one I want, Id get these 15x6.5 with +38mm offset up front, and 15x8 with 0 offset in rear with wider fenders in rear.....the others I dont thnk Id need wider fenders.
Also Im going to just use drums so the wheels dont stick out more, and for front run a adjustable beam and tryy to avoid a drop spindle. hopefully this will work....Im more less just researching to see if these options will work.

you can buy blank drums and habve them drilled.

Or I can just buy the 4-100 bolt patterned drums all ready drilled there the same price.
Anyone know how wide of a fender I would need for a 15x8" rim with a 0et?

Yowza !

Here is a quote from Creative Car Craft:

Use with up to 9" tire tread on 8" wheels with min. backside spacing of 3.5"

An offset of 0mm on an 8-inch wheel is the same as 4-inch back spacing. That means you are pushing that wheel an extra half-inch to the outside.

These cats are the only ones I know who make fenders wider than three extra inches over stock (4½ inches).

You may want to consult with CCC about your plans and the stats they state on their site.

So 0 offset, would only make them stick out a half inch pass the fenders? What about rim with a et25 (being a 15x8) or et35 (15x7) different rims.

I have personally not gone down this path or know of one who has. I am working with basic assumptions. With that in mind, what I said is based on what CCC's website says and assuming they are talking about no extra wiggle room involved. Then, yes, it would be a half-inch too far.

25mm offset with the 8-inch rims would save you nearly an extra inch than in your previous set-up.

35mm offset with the 7-inch rims would give you nearly 1-7/8 extra inches than in your previous set-up (1/2 inch for the narrower rim plus 1-3/8 inches for the 35mm offset), or an extra 7/8-inch extra over the above.

Oh, and I am only calculating width of wheel in these scenarios. At some point, you will have to deal with tire sizes which will impact width and overall diameter. That could be a lesser issue, but it will still be an issue -- especially depending on the amount of lowering.

But stick to the wheels first. It is easier to deal with a variable when you have more constants.
