The backspacing that you need is 2-1/4" for the front and back. I know that the rim sizes are different for front and back, but this is what I put on mine and they fit nicely. Hope this helps.

"C5 Rim Technical Information
Front 17x8.5, Positive 56mm Offset, 2.5" adapters suggested for 82-92 F-body
Rear 18x9.5, Positive 63mm Offset, 7.625" backspacing, 2.5" adapters suggested for 82-92 F-body"
Are they tell me the truth or do they want me to pay the extra money to buy biggy adapters?
