PLEASE! I Need Help With Wheels On My Car!

Hello, My name is Beezzz and I just recently bought some really nice 14x6 Buick Rally wheels for my 1995 Buick Century. PROBLEM. After I paid for them and won, I realized my buick is front wheel drive and I think these are rear wheel drive wheels. Here is a link to the auction page:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...9339240&rd=1,1

Is there any type of adaptor of some sort that will allow me to mount these on my car? If so please tell me the name of it and if possible...a link to where I can see a picture, or even better purchase them!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE!

Nick aka The Beezzz.

I doubt any adapters are made. The offset on those compared to FWD wheels might be too much. I'd suggest trying to resell them.

I don't know either, but I'll move this for you to the tires and wheels section, where folks know a whole lot more about it.

I'm sorry, but the rims are not going to work. Any adaptor would push the rims further out - which is the wrong direction.

Re-Sell the rims on eBay and get something that fits.
