17x9.5 with 54mm or 56mm backspacing?? On a camaro?
I am looking to order some wheels here soon for my 98z and am looking to do 17x9.5 all around.. I found some with 56mm backspacing and 54mm. Which one is gonna look better or isnt it gonna matter.. I havent been able to find and pics of this size on the rears of camaros. I am looking towards the new vette wheels with lip.. Anyone have any pics?? Thanks

Do not get the 36mm offset for the rears. They will stick out. I'm running a 17x11 with a 50mm offset and it looks perfect.
There is a sticky on wheels offsets and backspacing in the wheels section.

17x9.5 & a 54m offset will look fine! Ideally anywheres from a 46mm--54mm is best, but you have to remember tire size is extremely inportant, i suggest a 275/40/17 is your best fit on all 4 corners!!
A real decent tire in that size is the general exclaim uhp& can be had @ tire rack for $120 !

I like the gun metal version but if they are hard to balance junk I don't want them.
I don't see how they could be built in the same plant as the Original equipment plant.
Are they gravity cast or pressure cast too bad the seller doesn't state it
