Corvette sawblades on a g-body wagon

[wagoncar]

I have a set of Corvette sawblade rims.......wondering
if anyone has put a set on a g-body before.

The sawblades came on a 93-96 Corvettes.
Front rims are 17x8.5
Rear rims are 17x9.5

I bought wheel adapters...a 2 inch set and a 2 1/2 set.
Will they work?????

no, they look to have tooo much backspacing,


thats if these are what your talking about.

It's been done. I don't have his username right now, but I can find it and maybe get a few pics. He may even be a member here (Canadian T-bone or something like that).

Here's the only one I've found. You'll need spacers to run them though. I have a set of 17" F-Body wheels (275/40s on all 4) that I'll hopefully be running.

idk, those remind me too much of the second gen taurus wheels, lol.

I almost picked up a set at a swap meet last spring for $100.

with proper spacers and maybe a roll of the fender lips they'll fit fine

I bought wheel adapters, but the rear rims still won't fit clearance
wise. I think I need a wider adapter still than the 2 1/2 one I got
for the rear.

Maybe its just me, but a 2.5" spacer alone seems like a lot to me... Whats the biggest spacer you can run safely?? Just throwing that out there.

They are adapters not spacers.....adapters bolt right directly onto
the hub itself.... totally different animal.

Checkout wheel adapters on Ebay.com to see what they are.
People have used adapter on 500 hp ProTouring cars.
