Which wheels on S-10

What camaro wheels are on S-10's? The front offset ones or the rear offset ones?
I know it's only one set but which one?
Thanks

They're 15" wheels IIRC, which are all the same offset. Only the 16s and larger have the different offsets.

Yeah, what wheels do the 96+ use? The ones with the 91+ RS/Z28 wheels, all front or all rear. They use only one set rear or front?

As you said the 16x8 camaro wheels have a different backspacing front to rear.When the factory used 3rd gen camaro wheels on the S-10 [ ZQ8]they used 4 front wheels,but you can use the dedicated wheels as long as you keep them front to rear, the rears won't clear on the front.I bought mine from Pace Chevrolet,the have a website.OR,if you could just get four front wheels they will clear front or rear.

IIRC, the ones they used on the S-10s are a +4mm offset, which is nothing.

That about the same as the 0mm offset on the fronts of our cars. 4mm is the same as 5/32". I think it'll be OK.

Wait, The 15x7" wheels that come from earlier Z28's and later RS's, (like the first picture) have different offsets front to rear? Why don't they say front or rear like the 16" IROCs do?

Now your confussing me.

The Iroc wheels never came on the S-10. Only the 16" ones that were used are the ones on 91-92 Z28s and optional on the RS.

These



Those are the only ones that I've seen GM put on S-10s that look like the Camaro's wheels that are 16".

The 15" wheels, like the first ones posted above, don't have diff. offsets. They're only 7" wide and that wasn't enough to cause any clearance problems with the body/suspension.
