2.5 inch wheel spacers.Did a srch.Help pls

I know this topic has been beaten to death....but I did a search and i have got mixed awnsers.

Basically its this, are 2.5 inch spacers all around too big for 4th gen firebird rims (16's) .

Would the wheels stick out too much, anyone running this combo?

Anyone with pictures of 2.5 inch spacers on this wheel?




Any help would be great.



Nate

I'm running 2001 Camaro SS rims and I've got 2" spacers on all 4 corners.
Everything fits fine and looks great.

I got my spacers from these guys.

Send them an e-mail, they may be able to help you! If not, check out Skulte or Vette Brakes, they have them.

2.5 will not be much different than the 2s but they will stick out a half inch more no big deal./

i'm running 2.25" on my front wheels and 1.25" on the rears (16x8 firebird wheels). i dont imagine that another 1/4" will make too much of a difference. but if you plan to run 2.5" on the rears, that may look a bit off. here's a pic of my setup:
