yea you need a 2in spacer.. any wheel with a 0 offset and less than or equal to 9.5in wide will work on a thirdgen.

let me guess they are 4th gen wheels right? probably of the zr1/z06 variant?

no the rims are from tire rack i had them on a different car . so a 2 inch spacer all the way around will work? the back will stick out more a little ?

they will be equal, a 2in is what you would need, they will stick out 1/4-1/2 further than stock

They seem to be a wheel thats 8.28" wide, Probably called a 17x7.5 I would guess. You would want a 40mm or slightly thucker spacer if thats the correct width. A 2" spacer would work ok.
