I have THE wheels I want for my car but the offset is all wrong so now I need adapters to make them go without rubbing. Hoping someone here can help me out with this.

a little something to ponder if yo use an adapter on your rear wheels I don't think it is legal for racing.....I remember one race where a guy had a set of spacers and Tech sent him home.....

Had one here at edgewater cut the studs off at the starting line, wasn't a pretty sight, after he took out the tree, and hit the wall, yes they are dangerous.

High school nationals, some guy had two lug nuts on and just for kicks he epoxied some on. Got past tech, who the hell would do something like that and put their kid in danger? Another kid broke his axle shaft and he was saying to someone else that the night before he had done a quick crappy weld on it Suspect people don't learn.

The spacers are for street driving with a mild 400, stock C6, and 3.00 gears. I found some billit ones on ebay with grade 8 lug studs pressed in for a decent price. The wheels I am using are the '05 Mustang v6 wheels measuring 16x7, I don't think I'll get enough traction with tires that skinny to worry about breaking studs.
