Where can i find these and how much do they run $$$? Is there anythin bad bout em?

 

red53gmc got his from a place in new orlens i think.

be careful what you buy. a lot of them can't support the weight and will break stuff. i wouldn't recommend using them on the track AT ALL. its much safer to just find 6 lug wheels but the adapters are alright if you get the right ones

 

They were $575 shipped from http://www.motorsport-tech.com/ . And you do have to cut some off the lug bolts (the non-threaded part..).
They are 2-piece and I haven't had a problem with them.

Click on my link and see my truck.

Nope...they're at the edge of the fenderwell, just where I wanted them.

 

I bought some 2piece adapters for my '00 chevy when I sold my T/A and still had my 17x9.5 Enkei Win wheels. Needless to say after about the first 5-6 miles the front driver side adapter broke all of the big allenhead bolts holding the two pieces together, sending my wheel flying off at 70mph where it hit a tree. The nut on the bottom of the a-arm holding the ball joint in went through my rim and ate the whole inside up. After the rim departed across a lane of oncoming traffic, I skidded to a stop. Had to replace the a-arm. DONT BUY TWO PIECE ADAPTERS!!!! <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

Why didn't all the others break?

You have to buy the right 2 peice adapters. Just any ole ones and you take a chance. High strength bolts are a must.

 

I didn't give the others a chance to break I guess. They were over $100 a piece, hub-centric. They looked strong. But I guess looks can be deceiving.
