Default Do they fit?

I have an 86 coupe with stock suspension. I just came across a set of OEM rims from a 2000 C-5. 17" up front 18" in the rear. I can pick em up cheap - would they fit my dinosaur without mods?

You will need 1" adapters to use them as they have the wrong offset for your car. Otherwise, they will sit too far in and possibly rub on the inside. Even if they don't rub the car will look funny with the wheels sitting in so far.

I've seen the adapters for sale on eBay or from www.vbandp.com, who by the way is a supporting vendor. Good luck!
