I have a 78 two door malibu. I just bought 19x10 C6 corvette rims and they do not fit does anyone have advice on how I can get them to fit? I have been told I can swap rear ends with a Camaro but when I look at them they do not have mounts on top of the dif like the g-body does for the top control arms. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

There's no easy or inexpensive way to do that. F-body axle doesn't go into a G-body, spacers would have to be too big. You're looking at tubs or a custom built axle...

I would say both just to be safe, saves on buying adapters that have to come off for any service on the rear. Good luck with the front, anything over 8" with less than 5" backspacing will look a little weird, aka tires will start to stick out from the fender. With a 9.5" wheel and 275/40/17 mine stuck out a solid 1". You will likely need suspension work to fit anything wider under there... not to mention needing custom front tubs too.
