    Good evening guys!

    I'm looking for a set of wheel adapters. I'm running a chevy lug pattern up front and ford 8.8" in the rear. The adapter has to be 2.5" wide and go from a chevy 5x4.75" to 6x5.5" for the front, and a ford 5x4.5" to 6x5.5" for the rear. I've searched night and day over the internet looking for these adapters but I'm unable to find anything other than a 2" adapter.

    Can anyone steer me in the right direction to a reputable company (preferably not China) that has a 2.5" set of adapters??

    Thank you in advance!!

    Can't be done, going from five to six lugs. Somewhere in there the lugs will run into each other, the spacing just won't let it happen.

    A friend of mine recently bought a pair (E-Bay, I think) to run his six bolt Chevy wire wheels on an S-10 5 bolt rear for his '35 Chevy.

    Of course it can, especially with the difference in bolt circle diameters.
