well depending on what type of wheel your thinking of they wont fit... "nascar" wheels as u say it are made to bolt on a huB.... and the wheel has a hole in it about 4-5 inches wide in order to fit a different rear end. so unless your talking about the jalopies type wheel i wouldnt buy them. and 500M left turns with 42 other people can be more exciting than u would ever imagine

putting nascar wheels on your car would look dumb but it would sure fit in at the trailer park real well thats just about as dumb as putting 100 spoke daytons on our cars yeah they may be cheep but they look like crap. i suggest buying some welds or cargars that would most likely be your cheepest and best looking wheel.

NASCAR wheels will not fit your car unless you have 5x5 lug pattern hubs. You can however get the same design in 5x4.75 lug pattern. Try Areo's or Basset's with spun shells. Remember when balancing some of these wheel designs need to use the lug holes not the hub clearance hole. Of couse they are designed to go over 200mph on a 3500lb car (on banking and road courses), hit a curd hard , if they bend the lip, a hammer can fix it, very robust.
Also there not D.O.T. Legal, if that matters.

I'm glad someone agrees with me.

A Better Use for NASCAR Wheels...
Sunoco#6 is right-- NASCAR Winston Cup & Busch Series wheels are 5x5" bolt pattern. They won't fit on your F-body, so you can always make a table out of them...
This is the table I made out of 2 Mark Martin wheels and tires with glass on top. It is the end table between my couches. My coffee table used to be a Matt Kenseth trunk lid, but I've got it hanging on the wall now.

I bet these people in real life try to find a route to where they are going, by making all left turns......they wanna stick to what they are used to, probally feel weird taking a right turn....
I rather have some stock wheels instead of the "NASCAR" wheels IMO......
