Ok here is what I want... now how do I make it happen? does someone make a reproduction of these wheels that will just bolt on? (prowler wheels.. 17 and 20) by the way this is photoshopped... tell me what ya'll think

Link works fine now. Those wheels look good on the Cruiser, I ran across some similar when I was searching for wheels for my PT. Can't recall which site they were on, but I believe I saw them on several different sites. Do a Google search for custom wheels, that will keep you busy for awhile.

yea I have found some that look like these.. but after photoshoping them on this picture they just don't look as good... I am still trying to find someone that makes a copy of this wheel with a diff lug patern... if I can't find copys then I will look into making the PT the prowler lug patern and then having the rear wheels cut down to 8".... anyone have any idea how hard it would be to convert the PT to Prowler lug PT is 5x100 and think that the prowler is 5x135.. or some where in there...
Thanks for any info ya'll can give me

You could use a wheel adapter, there are several places that will make them for you, here's one:
http://www.wheeladapter.com/

Not sure how this would affect handling.

Thanks for the adapter site.. my next issue is that the wheels are 10's in back... from what I have heard we can only do 8's on the rear in a 20" wheel.... then I am not sure about the offset and back spacing.... if anyone is better at this type of stuff let me know... i am comming to a dead end here and I WILL make this happen but I am getting worn out HAHAHA
Thanks!

See if there's enough metal and clearance in your rotors to have them drilled to the Prowler pattern.[:I]
