Does anyone have the info on what adapters are needed to run the 17"x9" SS wheels on a thirdgen? Also, does anyone know the bolt patterns or offstes of both wheels? They are the 91-92 Z28 style wheels, 16"x8". This is actually for a friend of mine with a 98 S10 that he is switching from the Z wheels to (hopefully) the S wheels. Thanks.

4th to 3rd gen requires 2.5" spacers. The 16x8 Z28 wheels have a 0 offset in front and a 16mm offset in the rear.
