Newer Style Camaro wheels fit?

What needs to be done to make the newer style 16x8 Camaro rims fit a stock 1989 Camaro with disk brakes?

the stock disk breaks will not be a problem. you will need adapters and you can get the from jeggs or summit. if they are not stock disk breaks you will have to see if they are big enough, so get our your tape ans start taking measurements. why not look on the rims board and do a search and you might find more information. and look on the parts for sale board too and you should find them, they are always for sale.

I think you just need some wheel adapter, 2" is the usual mentioned. The bolt pattern is the same.
Skulte is the sure/$$ way.... ebay is $ (cheaper, but no brick store behind them).
