[GarySS]

Yes 2002 is the last year for the F-bodies(Camaro/Firebird)

Welcome to the Forum Gary, and thanks for your compliment!! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_cool.gif

I don't have your answer, but I am sure one of the guys here will be able to help you.

I just talked to someone at Corvette Mikes and they said it would fit on my SS but as I have encountered they are very hard to get in the standard finish.I want the real OEM rims and so far the only way to get them is with a vin # and insurance claim.

Gary, my '02 EB Z should be built the week of 7/23. I will be selling my stock wheels to help minimize the cost of a set of HRE'S. At this point, I don't know what price I will sell them for. But I am going to order my new ones this coming week. Welcome & Good Luck, FUBU69/LES

That's a great idea but I need 4 front(17 X 9.5)rims for my SS.

 

[Z06 jerry]

Front: 17 x 9.5, 54 mm offset
Rear: 18 x 10.5, 58 mm offset

Gary,

I think camaro requires a;

17 x 9 @ 50 mm offset

These guys will know for sure;

Why do you need 17x9.5"s all the way around? I was under the impression that the 4th gen F-Body would support up to 11" wheels in back with no mods? I know I managed to stuff 17x11"s in my '87 IROC with minimal modifications (ok, if you call pushing the quarter panels out 3/4" with a portapower "minimal" - but it didn't take too long).

Also, if you're going to run any sort of power behind it or are running an A4, you'll definitely want the wider wheels. My IROC would spin the 275ZR45-17s every time it shifted - that went away with the 315s.

Yes Jerry you are correct.

Because I want to use the factory tires and plus I can rotate them.I found out that they will fit .

2002 will not be the last year for the camaro.

 

[GarySS]

2002 will be and is the LAST year of the f-bodies(Camaro/Firebird) no ifs ands or buts.
