2nd gen offset vs 3rd gen
Im looking at some wheels and tires from a guy who has them on his 2nd gen and I'm wondering if they'll fit my 3rd gen.
The rears are 295/50r/15 and the fronts are 205/60r/15 and the rubber is grand prix performance gt
What are the differences and will there be any fitment issues?

They will most likely fit if they managed to clear on a second gen. I would want to know what the backspacing is on the wheels. I dont think the front would be an issue, but the rear might depending on the rim offset.

A thirdgen I bought had '80-'81 Z28 rims on it; fit fine till it hit the crusher.

From what I can see they look like a negative offset and will work but I have to drive an hour out to get these so it would suck to get home and they don't fit right.
