I seriously just gave a set of those away to a complete stranger with a 4 banger Fox Stang coupe the other day.I remember when that design came out back in the late 80's.I've seen them on Ebay.

Product images may differ from actual product appearance.
Chromed Steel composite wheel with blade cut-out. Center caps not included.
What he had was aluminum. I'm betting that they were the A/R 26 series.

For that cost,you could do a 5 lug swap on your car the right way,and,with the adapters,I believe you'll need a different offset of wheels to compensate for the adapter's thickness.Forget the adapters and just do the 5 lug swap if 5 lug wheels are what you want.

lol well its what i need cuz no one makes our stock bolt pattern anymore, so ill check into the 5 lug swap
EDIT: Searched for 10 mins straight, cannot find one fourm dedicated to doing a five lug, so if someone could point me in the right direction or let me know what all is needed...then that would be great, thanx again guys

Yeah for what I will have to spend for new tires and wheels, the ones like Vinnie has are quite reasonable and look the best! I have not found anything I like better with the factory turbines coming in second.

I meant to ask you was there any modifications for them to fit? Issues with offset or any rubbing to be aware of? Or will the bolt right up with no issues?
