Got these today, 15x7 z28 wheels do these have the 4.25 or 3.75 backspace? they have 255/60 r15 on them now and measure 5.5" from the tire bulge to the flange and 1.5" from the bulge to the outer bead ring. I'm thinking the 3.75 based on the .30" offset that i read somewhere anyone running these?

I want to run 225/70r15s on them to compensate for my 2.28 rear gear and get a little lift as well

What BS are they if they came off a camaro?
 
Re: Will I need a spacer?

I prefer the one with all the machined surfaces but do like to all black one.

Just so you know.....The f-body wheels will move your tire closer to your frame, but since you are only running a 225 you should have no issues. I ran early 80's camaro ralleys for a while and had to use a spacer to fit a 245/60 out back, I ran a 235/60 up front, and barely scrubbed on full lock . I like the machined look as well. 8)
 
Definitely the ones with the aluminum facing :twisted:


BTW, are you certain those are Z28 wheels and not just Monte SS wheels with a "Z28" center cap :?:
