will these fit.......

i am looking at a set of American Racing Z50 rims, they are 17x9.5 with a 54 offset and a 7.375 backside and of course a 5x4.75 bolt pattern, they will be the same size all the way around on an 86 camaro.

Here is the link if anyone wants a better look

Thanks,
Brett

Those are the wheels I want on my car too. But I dont know if they would fit, they are made for the Corvette(C5) right? So whatever people do to make Corvette wheels fit would work to make these wheels fit.

Okay so maybe I do, yeah they should work.

Big expensive spacers... look up Skulte on these boards and you'll find more information. Some people sell spacers fairly cheap on Ebay too though, so check around. Those linked rims would need spacers since they're made to fit the C5 and newer F-body cars.

Try here. They're almost the exact same rims but only made for our cars. Type in your car make, model and year and it's the first rim that shows up. They don't have the corvette emblem either.

Just click on wheel program on the left and click on one piece line at the top. It should be on the second page of rims there.
