Default what does 112 stand for when talking of bolt pattern 5x112?
i'm really interested in Gram Lights 57C wheels but they are 5x114.3 . . . i'm assuming they won't fit but i thought i read april say something about being able to go back and forth from sizes (of the lugs?) if they are close enough. anybody know? thanks!

112 is the length in mm between each lug...5x114.3 is REALLY close, I think you can redrill easily
