Default Wheel Adapter ??????????????????

I posted this over in Wheels & Tires but it's so dead over there nobody even offered a guess. So here it is here:

Hey boys and girls,
Anybody know what wheel adapters will allow running C5 wheels on an 84
Vette?
I have a set now that works with the newer offset Sawblades but the C5 wheels won't bolt on to them.

Anybody know?

I thought it was the same adapters for both. I have the C5 rims but no adapters on my 86. I am not too crazy about the sunken look but I need some $$$ to get the spacers.

The same adapters as you would need to run the later C-4 wheels. (MAD sells them) The C5 wheels will fit now but they will not look right because of the offset. :cheers:
