8x6.5 to 5x130 adapters?

Hey guys. Iv got a 1992 F-250 and my bros got a 2nd gen lightning. He bought some nice chrome rims for it, kept em on there for about a year, and got tired of em and is trying to sell em. I was thinkin these bad boys would look pretty decent on my truck but Id need some adapters. Is there such thing as a 8x6.5" to 5x130mm adapter? I googled it with no luck...

i dont have an answer for you, but 97+ is 5x135, not 130. i personally wouldnt adapt down to 5 lug on a 3/4 ton anyways. deals are usually easy to find on 8 luggers for what you would pay for a set of quality adapters if you watch craigslist...

besides that, those 15 inch rims will most likely not fit over your brakes anyway.

Theyre not 15s lol. I dont wanna say what size they are.... I think im gonna roll them up next to my truck just to see what they look like. Needless to say, a person of color would like them a lot (not tryin to be mean)

Another thing to consider, is find out what the weight rating of the rims are.

I figure if I do manage to put these things on my truck, theyll be for show. When I wanna pull a trailer or when winter comes around then Ill swap em out for my steelies so that shouldnt be a big issue
