Come to think of it, I am running front IROCs all around to avoid having to put new rear studs on.

Bolt pattern should be the same, just a big difference in backspacing.

Yep, most likely something like a 2 inch adapter.

I think I'm going in the right direction, but I want to make sure. To run these 16 inch camaro wheels I need 1 inch spacers for the rear. Correct?

in either case, you will need to use 1" to 2" spacers, as the Corvettes had very large offsets

Funny thing is i was thinking about these wheels, but in chrome for my cutty. I fell in love with them when i saw them on a slammed VW Jetta. They look decent without the centercaps too.

Thats similar to what the car looked like, but it was a loooot lower and had roof racks.

Are they actual camaro wheels, or sonoma/s10 wheels?

As I recall, the camaro version was 2 different offsets, the truck wheels are the same front and rear. I have no spacers on mine...I won't use spacers on anything of mine.

They are camaro wheels. I got billet hubcenteric spacers and got the rears on, just gotta get another pair of tires for the front. Took me forever to find center caps.
