No they won't work well at all. Too small of a wheel. An 8" wheel is so small on an F-body considering how large of a tire you can easily run. Don't try and stuff a 275/50 on it or 26x11.5...they can fit easily on your car but are not meant for that small of a wheel. The wheel has also the wrong backspace for your car. Even if you went to the largest they offer, it is still too small of a backspace. Do a search and you'll find a bunch of information.

If you want a wheel setup that is built for your car, look into our Bogart wheels. If you're interested, shoot me an e-mail in the link below and I will setup what you need for your car.

Then why would you ask if it was already on his car and you liked it.

I certainly don't think you'd find many at all that would like the way it would be sitting under your car....actually outside of the car. Take your stock wheel that you currently have, pull the whole wheel out two inches... your stock wheel would no longer be sitting centered, the tire and wheel would be sticking outside of the fender. It would look silly from the side and rear of the car...actually, you'd probably get a ticket unless you had fender flares.
