I did a few searches and didnt come up with anything. I was looking online and found some like so. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/WHEEL-ADAPTERS-SPACERS-GMC-CHEVY-TRUCK-IMPALA-CAPRICE_W0QQitemZ110236481431QQcmdZViewItem?hash=i tem110236481431 I know the impala / caprice wheels fit cuz they are 5x5 so theoretically a 5x5 > 5x4.5 converter should be fine but I wanted to know if anybody has tried it on a FWB?

This is the guy all the Impala guys use to put Corvette (5X4.75) inch wheels on.

The 5X4.5 bolt pattern opens a whole new realm of wheels up. :thumbsup:

Wheee...

Any links to pics of examples (even on impalas/caprices) would be welcome

The two most popular are the Iroc 18-22 inch replicas and the Corvette C5/C6 17/18 staggered setup:

There is a ton more. Just check out the Caprice, Roadmaster, Impala, Fleetwood, and Brougham sections of cardomain.

sweet!!!

Actually, I am installing one of those too . However my main concern is that rear tires don't rub .

I use spacers on my Impala SS. They are 1.5" thick. Very similar to Rustic's construction: 6061 billet, pressed-in studs, hub-centric. They have held up to over 30 000 miles of HARD driving. For example, here is my car cooling off after some lapping on a nearby road course. :thumbsup:

Sorry the pic is so small...

Hah my favorite part He has "DUEL" highflow cats :) Do they Fight when the car starts up? Does one make more angry of a sound then the other? :cookoo::cookoo::cookoo:

Okay backup.. correct me if i'm wrong.

The fleetwood is 5x5 but the wheels that they say fit for the pickup are 5x127?

is 5x5 and 5x127 just close enough or do i need a spacer?

It is the same bolt pattern (5X5 or 5X127), just measured in different units.

Yes...a lot of sites don't properly list these cars, but all you have to do is search using a 2wd mid 90's Chevy/GMC full-size truck or SUV, and you have it--same bolt pattern and offset.

I really like those 18's Firewood on the other forum found through TireRack...they even look Fleetwood appropriate, well, at least to me. And a GREAT price all together.
