Default Newb question time.

Can someone help me out here. I've got a set of 17x9.5 sawblades from my wrecked typhoon that are MINTY. I bought a 96 LS400 with the money I got paid out for my typhoon. What's its gonna take to get them on my car? It's obvious that I'm gonna need adapters, but can someone help me out with the sizes?

not gonna work without serious modification... those wheels are a zero offset fitment... your LS is a high offset fitment... if you use an adapter, you will reduce the offset even more making the effective offset somewhere in the negative 20 to negative 30 range...

they will effectively stick out 5 inches or so from where your factory wheels do...
