Can I put 17x6.5 grand prix rims on my Sunfire? I know the bolt patterns are different, but I was wondering if I could use 5x100 - 5x115 adapters without them sticking out too far and tearing my fender apart. I'm also lowered on B+G Sport Springs on stock shocks/struts.
i wouldnt use adaptors, just get the correct wheels for your car and also get new struts for your car, you need them

agreed or convert the hubs if you feel really ambitious.
How do I convert the hubs? I really want these rims.

Click here - Front End Conversion
Click Here - IRS - What you need to do is swap in the IRS of an N-Body car to get the bolt pattern in the rear.
Be warned though, this is a large task at hand to convert the front hub and swap in the IRS to allow you to use the rims. If you have the time and know-how to do it, more power to you. But its not a simple task for the first-timer.

You buy that car... Cause you don't know how to even to start.
I know about the NWF Swap, and the IRS swap, I've been contemplating that for a while. I was simply asking for help, to find out if there was a simpler way to get a 5x115 bolt pattern. if you have nothing good to say or a positive comment to add about my question, then go f--k yourself mister, I'm looking for help not criticism.

Ok listen here I'm trying to help you if you like it or not. I'm not just some punk kid on here trying to prove you wrong, but you are trying to find a cheap way to put another GM car's wheels on your car. You are just like everyone that wants the Colbalts wheels on Cavy. I guess you understand that there is no real cheap bolt on fix if you want it to be safe and not look like a oldschool lowrider with 3" spacers on. So put your money into some nice wheels and call it a day. Thank you and drive thur...
OWNED..
Built not bought!
