Default 2003 SS rims on 85 SS

hello all. I have an 85 monte ss and a 2003 jeff gordon ss, and i have an extra set of wheels from the 03 that I think would look pretty nice on the 85. Is there an adapter kit that anyone makes to make them fit?

IMO it's not remotely worth the effort. IIRC the G body is 5x4.75" (about 120mm) and the W body is 5x115mm bolt pattern. Certainly they make adapters to convert anything, but quality adapters are expensive. There is also the issue of back spacing/offset, etc. Typically FWD cars and RWD cars are pretty different in that regard.

In short, id suggest selling your spare wheels online and just buying something of the same bolt pattern from a similar year rwd car or some aftermarket wheels.
