David,

Mmm, no.  5k's (and ur-q's) are 5 bolt (112mm), 4k's are 4 bolt (100mm
pre-85, 108mm 85 and up)  Don't know if it has anything to do with the
model names.  Guess not, 'cos then a 100 or 200 wouldn't have enough lug
bolts!

There is a guy in northern Cali (you q-club guys know him) with 5k
struts on his ur-q fendered turbo 4k road racer.  I forgot his name.

Hmmm...  I do want to get some nice 'center lock' wheels, though.  Some
nice Fikse's, or a set of RH's like in the D&W catalog.  Those could
qualify as one lug nut.  But I digress...

Later,

Ken
(there'll prolly be mucho other responses in addition to mine, 'cos it's
a question most of us prolly know the answer to)
