Lots of people have done it. I am putting 17X9 WS6 wheels on my formy in the same fashion. Using 2" adapters all the way around.

hey thanks i forgot all about that chart i had already looked at that but i forgot about it. but i really dont like the fact of spacers but if thats the only way to adapt the rims i can get, i ll have to do it. the rims are gunmetal grey 2000 rims i think they would look sharp! thanks

Hey Meatman, Are your rims polished aluminum or painted? I have the same wheels on my fomula, I went with the painted ones, they look awesome. 2" adapters are the way to go.
