Third gen camaro rim size fitment

Does anyone know for sure is 18x8.5 front 19x10 rear rims will fit a stock 86 iroc?
Or exactly the biggest that will fit. If not what mods you'll have to make for them to fit?

Re: Third gen camaro rim size fitment

You'll need spacers. You might rub a bit on the rears depending on how low the car is. You may need the big hammer mod too. There is no magic yes or no with wheels and tires. Many have this set-up but I am sure each has a story how they got there.

Re: Third gen camaro rim size fitment

Rears need about a 2.5” spacer. 2” may work depending on tire size. I needed closer to 2.5” over thirdgen width rear. Need to clearance wheel well up near the front of the well but also depends on tire size

front should take a 2” spacer I think
