Five lug adapters for four lug hubs

I have recently built some five stud adapters for my four lug hubs. They are 3/4" thick. Machined on a computerized CNC turning machine from cold rolled shafting material. They are the same diameter as the hub and are almost unnoticable. The bolts and single bolt/stud in each are the trick. I am wearing 55 mm offset 7" x 17" "Cup" wheels with 205/50/ZR17 Pirrelli's. No, no flares on this '74 914-4. Standard fenders. Yes, it's a tight fit,(about 3/8's of an inch on either side of the tire) but they don't rub and they look great. Your comments, please. Surely someone out there thinks this won't work! But it does.
