Anyone used wheel adapters?
Has anyone used wheel adapters to change their lug pattern, if you have did it work good, what were the pros and cons?

I use them on the front and rear on my track car. No problems at all. They are 1" aluminum wheel adapters. They bolt to the hubs and then the wheels bolt to the adapters.

A lot of Crown Vic / Grand Marquis / Town Car guys use them to run Mustang wheels. Have not heard of any of them failing. If you get them try to replace the wheel studs with some aftermarket ones.

The kind shown in roadracer's pics look strong. The stamped-steel "show car"
ones or the cheapo JC Whitney ones are ones I would avoid.-Bob

CNC machined ones are the way to go. The JC Whitney ones are crap. 3rd Gen Camaro guys like to use them so they can fit 4th gen Camaro and Vette rims.

Crown Vics use the standard (since the late 70s) mid and full size car pattern. it is 5 on 4.5 or 5 on 114.3
