Will 1996 corvette wheels fit?
I'm going to look at a set of directional 1996 corvette wheels for sale. I want to put them on my 1992 Camaro. The owner doesn't know if they are 17" by 8 1/2", or 17" by 9 1/2", or 17" by 11", will any of these fit my Camaro? The offset is what concerns me. Thanks

Re: Will 1996 corvette wheels fit?
I went with a 2" spacer in the rear and a 2.25" in the front. Wheels are 17x11 with a 7.8" backspace and the fronts are 17x9.5 with a 7.1" backspace. The rear tires are 315/35R17 and the fronts are 275/40ZR17. The front rubs a little in the rear on a hard turn so if you go with a smaller front tire it should get by with no rubbing.

The wheels I looked at were 17x11 with a 7.8" backspace on the rear and the fronts are 17x9.5 with a backspace of 7.1". The rear tires are 275/40R17 and the front tires are 245/40R17 so 2" spacers in the rear and 2.25 on the front will work with no problems. Thanks for the information
