This may be the wrong area to put this thread but I'm gonna try anyway. I just saw a STS with some sweet stock wheels and I was wondering if those wheels would fit my old Fleet?

isnt the STS front drive? i think your fleet is rear drive , offset on the STS's wheels might be diffrent , at least this was the case witht he nissans , 240sx wheels (rear drive) would bolt up to my G20 (front drive) but the offset was wrong which caused rubbing issues and funny wheelbearing loads

Damn the Sandman!! Found another thread he hit too!!
Thanks for the info Stoneage. I decided I'm gonna copy a member on this forum and put Impala SS w/ Caddy center caps on my car.

also I belive the STS has a smaller bolt patern. Plus the off set is way off. FWD wheels have such a positive offset that it'll probablly rub the frame if they even go on. SS wheels will look good though. I have seen FWD wheels put on a 37 Ford but there was a lot of machining done, etc...

the bolt pattern on the old car is 5x139 with a zero offset, the bolt pattern on the sts is 5x115 with a high (around 40mm) offset. never happen.
