questions regarding WS6 rims

i own a 86 trans am. i'm looking at an ad for a pair of WS6 rims that i really want, but the ad mentions that they are location specific, ill paste from ad:
"IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THEM, YOU WILL KNOW THAT THEY ARE LOCATION SPECIFIC.TWO FIT ONLY FRONT,AND TWO FIT ONLY REAR.REAR HAVE DIFFERENT OFFSET BECAUSE OF REAR DISC BRAKE."

my car has 4 wheel disc brakes, is this going to be a problem for me? these are not the gold spoke GTA rims, just the nicer WS6 rims. I am on the look for the center caps of my rims, but this set comes complete and the price is in my budget


not sure if my car is WS6 or not, actually i dont really mind. I just like these rims and want info on it.

my car is a 305, auto, hardtop, posi rear, 4 wheel disc breaks, electrical everything inside,no ws6 badges anywhere, if any of this info helps

thanks in advance. im not sure where to post so i'll try this forum and another as well

Re: questions regarding WS6 rims

Don't worry. They will fit on your car fine. Go get them. It just means the front have different offset than the rears. On GTA wheels, the front wheels have an inch deeper of a dish than the rears.
