I've wanted to do that, and 2 of my freinds were gonna get extremes and sell me the wheels cheap this summer when they put 18"s on. But they both ended up not getting them
I'm sure they fit fine, cause i think S10s use the same backspacing as our cars.

I don't have the info on backspacing, but here is a picture of a fellow thirdgenner's car with the S-10 rims. It turned out really nice

Just giving you guys a heads up there is a set of those flat-spoke 5 stars s-10 rims on e-bay. They are not extreme wheels, they are the S10-ZQ8 wheels like on the blue camaro in the post above.

arnt the S10 rims (like the blue camaro) the same as my old 91 Z28 rims. I heard the had a surplus left over from the camaros, gave them a new center cap and put them on the S10. Backspacing shouldn't be a problem?????? All I know is my frient had a S10 (late 80's early 90's) and his camaro wheels fit on the S10, so the S10 wheels should fit on no prob????????

thought they were the same rim, but there is just something that makes me think they are different. Maybe it is just a center cap. Any one know whose Blue Ride that is? Or abotu how much those "s10" rims go for on EBAY, are they cheaper then the Camaro rim?

I need rims bad. Gotta decide what will look good on my car. Any ideas? I think some silver zr1 wheels in the 16x8 would be cool.

Those are ROH ZS wheels, not S10 Extreme. Nice though.

There is a black '90 IROC convertable in my town with the S10 Extreme wheels. They look awesome on that car. But I think they are 16".

Does anyone know where to get the flat center caps to fit the 16" wheels? How much do they cost from the factory?

Z28racer, thanks for posting a picture of my camaro. I seen the topic and knew someone would be pasting a picture of it. I no longer have the car(it burnt). I put those wheels on the car to see how they would look and liked them so I kept them for a while. I had to grind the center hub hole on the rims a little bit to get them to fit over the hubs on the car. I think Ihad to do this because they where new rims. The rims are 16x8 and had 235/55/16" on them. They did not stick out at all on my car either. I no longer have the wheels. if any of you wish to view the car they where on then go here:
www.fbody.com/members/brads91z28

if the site doesnt load right on your computer then it is because I havent updated it or worked on it since the camaro died in 2000

I remember seeing pics of your car right after it burned. Such a sad end for such a beautiful car.

if you choose to have the rim in 17" then the ROH ZS rim is the closest thing to it.
