You'll struggle to get adapters made as there'll be overlap on one of the bolts, unless you mean really old landrover?
There are ways round the bolt issue but they are not cheap solutions. Easiest would be to convert to mk3 hubs then get adapters from there.
 
Landrover have 16mm bolts so that will also cause problems.
 
They are really heavy too so say goodbye to a fun sweet handling car.
 
There's being different and just cocking a car up.

It can be done: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=182998.0

This is 5stud however, don't think you could get them to fit on 4stud.
