These Camaro wheels fit?

Rich,
Are they designated F & R for front and rear? If so, you will probably have to use a 1" spacer on the rear wheels. They have definitely been used on our cars before, and I think I would look good on your wagon.

Now that's more like it! Much less re-engineering than the Corvette wheels. The Camaro 245-50-16s are a little smaller than stock, but a 255-50-16 is exactly the same diameter as OEM Malibu tires. (just 3" wider!!!)
I've been razzed before, but bolt-on spacers (preferably on the rear) are safe, in my opinion, and I've been driving on them for two years, every day, and at 75 mph.

Be better to try to find the same wheels from an s10 or sonoma, they're all the correct offset for a g body.
You will have to enlarge the center bore to fit over G body hub/axle pilot.
These were mine with the sonoma 235/55s on them

Brian,
I thought of you when I saw those wheels. I was hoping you'd see this thread and chime in...I'm glad you did.

Hiya Jack!
Sure starting to wish I had kept the Bonneville...although I do have a couple "possibles" at hand.
Buddy still has the blue one, but it's Kansas City past (tinworms) is catching up with it

So just the 1" spacer for the rear and fronts will bolt on? Or go s10/Sonoma and have to drill out center bore?
Rich,
If these are in fact the Camaro 16 x 8" wheels with the designated "F" and "R" wheels, you should be good using a 1" spacer/ adapter in the rear. Just make sure that the spacers are made of quality billet aluminum, forged steel, etc. I would avoid using cast aluminum. Hub- centric would be a plus.
Using the Sonoma wheels. As Brian said, the center hole would need to be clearanced to fit over the center hub.
