I think C3 alloys have 0 offset and 4" backspacing, could be wrong tho (offset and backspacing is not the same thing, offset is the pos. of the hub surface from center)

Anyone know if newer camaro wheels fit without spacers? i suppose i could just bolt em up and check, but i think they will stick in too far.

I'd say they have too much backspacing for C3, you could propably make'em fit with VBP wheel adaptors... How's it going man any way? Long time no talk! :D
BTW what's the bolt pattern on those wheels?

yea ive been a little scarce on CF for a while :D lurking here and there but usually too busy working on the typhoon. :lol: that thing needs so much attention.
i decided on a T88 for the vette. i havent seeon one, and id like to :crazy: im going to pull the engine when i change the heads/cam and jump the the engine bay and clean the hell out of it. then i'll paint everything black. that'll give me a chance to easily upgrade my radiator and possibly fab up a cool intercooler setup. it probably wont be done for another 5 years, but who knows, i may run into a wad of cash that i can blow on it.
hows yours coming along?
almost forgot, the bolt pattern is 5x120mm which im pretty sure is the same as C3s...

Sounds like you have been busy working on that 4x4 monster and your future sounds just as busy! :lol:
That's right the 5x120 or 5x4.75 is C3 s bolt pattern, so that won't be a problem.
Mine should be running this weekend, so I'm taking the final steps on the poject at this stage. :cheers:
