HeHe,
Where did you look, Its one of the most talked about swaps for wheels. They will fit on, but you will need 2" adapters to make them work. Check out Skulte Performance Designs - Skulte Performance Designs. I was gonna go this route but am now going to get something else. If you can score some wheels cheap in the UK, then I'd say go for it.

Corvette rims have the same bolt patterna s the camaro rims and most GM trucks as well. Should use corvette nuts and will screw in. Whether or not a rim will fit will depend on the backspacing to make sure the wheel/tire does not rub. You can get away with a 5.5 to 6" bakcspacing.

Thanks...........Bill............born in the UK.............living in Canada.
