02 SS rear swap, what rear offset now?
I just put in a 02 10 bolt, and I want to run 11" ZR-1s. What offset do I need for my 86 IROC? Anyone got some pics for spacing purposes? Do I have to roll the inner fender really?

I'm pretty sure the stock rear offsets on a 4th gen would be perfect for the rear tires. You deffinetely need adaptors in the front, not sure what kind/measuremeants.

Does anyone know? I have seen some of us have 17-11 rears in ZR-1s. What is everyone using 3rd gen rears and spacers? 4th gen rears and 36mm offset? 50mm offset? Do you have to roll the inner lip?

The 4th Gen wheels are:
16x8 55mm offset (6-5/8" backspace)
17x9 55mm offset (7-1/8" backspace) WS6/SS
That is what I was told...
What is the 3rd gen rear wheel specs?
I guess I have two more inches of backspacing to eat up just trying to figure out what to tell american racing for my tt II's..
I was going to use 4th gen front tire specs and 4th gen rear tire specs the difference in stock backspacing of 4th and 3rd then divide up 3 inches each...
Trying to go 335/35/17 Michelin's
16x8 55mm offset (6-5/8" backspace)
17x9 55mm offset (7-1/8" backspace) WS6/SS
