4 Lug universals won't fit my SVTF?
So I recently hit a pothole and bent the crap out of my SVTF rim. My uncle had a set of 4 lug universal's laying around so I was just gonna throw those on. I went to put one on and it just won't line up, it's soooooo close but they just won't fit. Why is this? Help is much appreciated.

Most "universals" are 4x100/4x114.3 because those are the 2 most common 4 lug patterns.

alright I've got it! We need to design a user definable, interchangeable hub and wheel system

or just make every car have the exact same bolt pattern. much like all verizon phones having the same charging bit plug in thing. as opposed to iphones being different, etc.
