Golf carts are 4 on 4. Nissan also has a bolt pattern the same.

The closest bolt patter for automotive that will fit a 4:4 golf cart hub is an automotive 4:100, even with that depending on the wheel type, you will need to make an adaptor.

You could get away with using a 4:100 car wheel, with a golf cart 2" spacer, but it will not work if the rim requires tuner lugs. You need to make an adaptor, thus either having your own machine shop, or geting it made.

With that said, using a 4:100 wheel on a 4:4 adaptor for a non tuner style lug (a standard lug nut), you will have centering issues that could haunt you forever.

Golf Cart lug pattern, its, 4"on 4" or 4"on 101.6mm
There are a few car rims that carry the same pattern.
Austin-Healey Sprite
Crosley - all '39-'52
MG Midget
Jensen Healey
Opel Manta, Kadette, GT
GM L-body
Buick Skyhawk '75-'81
Chevrolet Vega, Monza '71-'81
Pontiac Sunbird, Astre '76-'81
Oldsmobile Starfire '75-'81

For the Honda and other rims that can be made to work. They are 4 on 100mm, it's a little off but I guess you can make them work if your set on doing that, but its still not an exact fit. You can do a goggle search on lug patterns and you can find which cars have the 4/100. There is still the matter of backspacing with any of the car rims
