Default Couple questions

First... I've got a potentially great craigslist deal lined up with wheel spacers. They are 5x114.3 bolt but they were for a Mustang. They should still work on my Z, right?

Second is more of a concern. I’ve had a couple problems with this, our beloved Z site. My computer has blocked a few virus attack attempts. I was concerned about this site being compromised. I know nothing about hackers and virus starters or why anyone would do it. Yesterday, while on this site on my personal desktop, my computer was attacked by the “HP Guardian” virus. This virus infiltrates your computer and acts as if it’s a virus protection software program. It denies access to the internet saying that it’s blocking viruses.
My computer was completely inaccessible and it had to be totally restored. I lost everything. Has anyone else had problems?
… BTW I was running Norton on my computer and it failed to block this attack. My computer repair man tells me that many people are getting this virus.
Be careful friends

But it's just the wheel spacer and it's the same bolt pattern. The only thing that I could think that might render a problem would be the total diameter of the spacer.

Yes, the bolt pattern is the same. Now, the qeustion of whether they will look good remains to be seen. Pics?

Whats the hub bore, i really don't feel like looking it up. If they are hub centric , depending on the bore, they may not fit.

I hadn't thought of that... Mustangs have a bigger bore. Something like a 70 or 71 if I recall. The Z's have a 66.something. I guess it isn't going to work. Darn. Thanks for the help. I'm might check it out anyway just to be sure.

They will still physically work, but won't be hubcentric.
