I have seen wheels in thepast with elongated bolt holes. The inside edge of the holes was in a Ford/Dodge 4.5 inch diameter, the outside edge was in a GM 4.75 inch pattern. You couldn't use them in any 'in between' 5 bolt pattern - in those two pattterns the shanked lug nuts would center the wheel by tightly fitting either against the inside or outside edge.
Some newer 4 bolt wheels just have two sets of bolt holes - 8 holes total. 4 in a smaller pattern, 4 in a larger pattern. Surely a better idea than elongated holes, but not as good an idea as just getting wheels that fit your car.
