anyone using 4th gen rims on a 3rd?
ive been wondering if 4th gen rims will bolt up to a 3rd gen without any problems(i.e. wheel adapters etc)
every time i find a decent set the seller wont let me test fit em on my car so i dont bother buying em.the most i wanna have to do is use a flat spacer if necessary

ALOT of people are running them. If not 4th gen they are running the corvette rims, or just custom/aftermarket.
You WILL need proper spacers. Just do a search and it will tell you more then you want to know about just about every wheel you would want to run on your car.
Personally I like the corvette zo6 rims the best but im saving up for a custom set of 19in boze wheels(havent decided on design yet).

I run a set of 4th gen SS wheels. They absolutely will not fit without adapters. I have 2" adapters all around.
I'm thinking about bumping up to those for my street wheels and getting cheap 17x9.5 C4 vette wheels for the track.
