You mean 02 SS rear end. Don't forget spacers for the front. Your link doesn't work either.

you can't get the proper front offset for them? that narrow of a rim pushed further out is going to look a bit out of place. what is the offset specs of them?

well assuming they are the correct 4thgen offset a 2" adapter will be the norm although if you can wait it would be best to measure the rim on your car so you'll know the absolute smallest adapter you'll need.

I thought they made those in the 3rd gen offsets, maybe I was wrong. Whatever the situation is though, PLEASE post a pic when you get them on. I've been dying to see those wheels on a thirdgen.
Thanks, Efrain.
