If so post pics, if any spacers were used, and what suspension your running.

Picked up a 91 for the wife and well she hates the rims on it so either to run a set of mesh or my factory fd rims.

I know people have done it in the past and they did have to use spacers. Unfortunatley I don't remember what size. It's been talked about many times before.A quick search got this.

My spacers that I used for when I had fd rims were 32mm thick and had studs in them so you bolted the spacer on, and then bolted the wheel to the spacer. Lots of autox time with this set up. With this thick of a spacer though, you will need at least one degree of negative camber as you will stick out of the fenders if you do not. my car is in my avatar, but its not all that big if it gives you an idea.
