if this is the style you want http://www.slickcar.com/productdetai...ProductID=4034
i dont see those fitting. they are so wide you will look like a gangsta mexican rolling down the road cause they will be sticking way out from the wheel well.

Actually, the offset on the C5 wheels is just about right and they won't stick out much if at all. They have a +50 or so offset. I just see the 9.5" width being a problem, you'd probably hit the wheels on the struts.
You could use the the C6 style wheels in an 8.5" width though. It does require changing the bolt pattern on the car. You can bolt C5 rear hubs in the front of the Alero, they need to be bored a little but for the CV shaft to fit right. You should be able to use the front C4 hub bearings on the rear of the Alero with no troubles also. I haven't measured the rears out completely yet, but the front's DO fit perfectly. That will effectively convert your car from a 5X115 bolt pattern to a 5X4.5" (120.67mm) bolt pattern .
I've almost figured out how to get the 12" F-Body rear brakes to work too...

Yes it does. If your asking if the 'Vette wheels will bold right on, no they won't.

4.5" = 114.3mm, i think you meant 4.75".

For the 12" rear conversion, I'm waiting on some parts yet so i can figure out if it works as expected.
