ford-to-chevy wheel adapters. they dont stick out too far or anything. i've had them on my 93 z28 in the past and they fit good if i remember correctly.

curious what the zo6 rims will look like on it.. they're black and brushed lips also. but i'm gonna have to spent 100-200 on spacers because mine are 18x10.5 and 17x9 fronts. they wont clear.

i also have 18x9 polished aluminum Saleen rims but prefer to keep those on my 67. then 2004 mach 1 rims and 05 black bullit rims. then deep dish fr500s but those are on my cobra.

How the heck did you just throw mustang rims on your car without the wheels attached to them?

Did you cut the rim off the mustang wheel, then weld that rim on another wheel?

i'm guessing you're joking. i used ford-to-chevy rim adapters. you put the adapter on, put the 5 lug nuts on, put the rim on, put 5 more lug nuts on

yes. it was parked out in front of a u pull it in indiana but looked like a customers car. i actually was walking by and was like "did i just see Mustang wheels on alero?" i had to go back and look and sure enough they were the exact same wheel as on the red mustang i posted above, complete with pony center caps, lol.

It's hard to see the rims behind the ugly Instagram effects and the ridiculous watermark on images that are too ugly (by scenery and editing) to want to steal.
