Then sell them and get chrome ones that fit your truck. Adapters are not legal in PA. If you get in an accident and they investigate and see them it’s your fault regardless if it was or not. They also fail for inspection. I’ve had my license since, I know lol. Not busting your chops on this one just trying to steer you in the right direction.

X2.. I'd re-drill hubs and axles before I'd run wheel adaptors..
