Wheels?

If I want to put 9.5in wide rims on my 89 iroc which size spacers are ideal and why? Never had to do this before would be nice to hear some input snd what is meant by a hubcentric spacer?

Re: Wheels?

Who says you need spacers? And if you do, without knowing the specs of the wheel you plan to use, its impossible to help you. Spacers need to be billet, not cast aluminum.

There is ZERO useful information there as far as fitment. Try again.

bolt spacing and offset or backspacing are what we need.
