Default 98 z28 rims, on a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am

What do i need to do to fight my 98 z28 rims onto a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am?

I think they would look good on the Pontiac getting rid of the hub caps and putting on the chrome z28 rims. But when i tried to put the z28 rim onto the Pontiac the z28 rim holes were slightly too far apart from the Pontiac holes. I need help on what parts i need to make them fit.

Wrong Bolt Pattern and wrong offset . . . . The only way to get them to fit would be with a bolt pattern adapter, which would probably push the wheel out of the wheel well.

They would look like this:



The "holes" would be at the G.P. bolt pattern, and the "studs" would be at the F-Car bolt pattern.

Thanks. I checked for prices and 70 bucks a pair, does that sound about right? Shouldn't they be sold in a set of 4, i didn't think they were that expensive.

Really reason i wanted to make the switch is cause my brother just bought a Pontiac Grand Am, and the tires are not in the best of shape. So i was thinking of putting my rims to his car which the tires are in a lot better condition then the grand am tires. He'll probably just end up buying tires for a few more dollars. Thanks again for the info.

Default wow

I cant believe you asked that question.....i mean for someone who owns a Z28 and bothers to set up an account on a CAR forum, wouldnt know the most basic thing about cars, the bolt pattern!!!! If it doesnt fit that means the rims are from a different car. Sorry if i sound like dick but i know it was running through all your heads who viewed this. Just my 2 cents. Have a good day
