So I unknowingly picked up a set of wheels I didn't realize wouldn't fit. I picked up a set of 17" 5 spoke SS wheels.
I originally bought my car a couple years ago with race stars and have never had another wheel/tire set on them. This winter i swapped the car from its Th350/10bolt to a t56 magnum and qp 9" and wanted a more street/road trip friendly wheel/tire set. So I picked up the 5 spoke 17x9 SS wheels. Fit on the rear fine but I have a wilwood front brake setup on the car. I don't have any issues with the caliper but with the brake hub - the diameter of the snout on the Wilwood hub is wider than the center opening on my wheels. The snout tapers to around 3" and hits the wheels. I then tried a set of 18" z06 replicas I still had that I didn't plan to use on the car and they just barely didn't fit.

I'm not looking to run a spacer. Does anyone have any feedback on what wheels might have larger clearance with their center opening that would clear the Wilwood hub? My consideration is to pick up a set of 17x7 polished race star fronts (as they'd somewhat match my polished 5 spoke SS rears) and run some nice 215 summer tires on them however I'd prefer running a full matching stock GM wheel style that I could buy in reps from OEWheels or something similar. Anyone had any similar experience or know of any OEM style wheels that could clear these things?

Not my picture but it's the same hub/snout causing me issues

 

You'd need 2" (give or take) spacers with the SS wheels anyway, so since you don't have 'em, that's probably why you're hitting. Of course I don't know that for sure, but the SS wheels are drastically different from stock thirdgen offsets.

 

Gotcha and thanks, been so long I forgot about this. So last night though I did try to put on some stock 16" Iroc's my buddy has and had the same issue though with the snout not clearing the center. Almost makes me want to just swap to regular LS brakes! Starting to lean towards just buying some race stars for the front for street tires and being done with it
