Forgestar fitment question

Hi guys I’m a new member but long time reader. Thanks for the endless amounts of info!

I have a 1985 Z28 and have been doing a ton of research here on wheel/tire fitment.

I am interested in the Forgestar D5 18x10 with a 25 Offset. I would like to run these square with a 275 tire.

After a lot of searching and reading, I believe these will bolt right up with a BBK upgrade and factory 10 bolt.

Does this sound correct?

Thanks for your time!

Re: Forgestar fitment question

No one can confirm that a 18x10 w/ 25et will work front and rear?

Will any spacers be needed to fine tune fitment?

Appreciate any input. Thanks

Tony

I'm running 18x10 rear wheels with 20et and it took minor hammering on the inner fender well. I am looking at getting the Forgestars also, would likely need a 1/4" spacer to get the tire stanced properly. On the front it would probably be more like a 1/2" spacer needed.

Thanks for the info. I ended up getting different wheels.
