offset and rim size question

**Casper1** · 06-09-2007, 11:27 AM

i wanna put 17x9.5 with an offset of 54mm on the front and 18x10.5 with an offset of 58mm on the rear with a bolt pattern of 5x4.75in on my 2001 camaro z28 ...will all this work, or not?

bolt pattern should be metric...
5x 120.65
but since 4.75" = 120.65, the bolt pattern is perfect.
I have the 18x10.5 +58mm offset C6 wheels... I use a 1/4" spacer in the back.
Fronts, your are plug and play.

us americans refused to convert to metric, like the rest of the world.

ironically, medical field and even car manufacturers use metric... lol
i said that earlier because some wheels are 5x120mm which fit the BMW... the little difference make the nuts come loose.

the schools are teaching as standard these days. my 13 year old starts using those weird terms like meters, liters, etc...

i have to go and convert it, so i can relate.

Eugenio, do you have any problem with the spacers your running and what brand did you go with? I heard many things bad about spacers. Such lug nuts coming loose and lug bolts breaking, but only hear say. Haven't really known or heard of anyone experiancing such isues. Reason I ask is because I also want to bring out the rear a 1/4" it makes the wheels almost flush and would make them look much better. I like your set up by the way, really clean and kick ass.

Just make sure the spacer is hubcentric and you are ok.
I'm using a custom spacer.
