Today I did my 5th gen to 4th gen break swap. Its almost finished just waiting on a few more caliper mounting bolts. This sint so much of a how to as it is just showing with the right parts the factory 17" WS6 wheels will fit and look pretty badass too.
I started off with low mile 1LE Camaro Brembo's i bought off of a member on here. I then orered the parts I would need and got started. In order for the stock wheels to work I ordered 3/4" wheel spacers that are stud centric as well as 2 1/2" longer wheel studs from ARP. The rest is your standard 5th gen to 4th gen swap. Hope you all enjoy and can see that these wheels will fit.

Yea I used a rough wheel to knock it down fast to create clearance then I smoothed it out with a scotch bright wheel. I'm kinda **** about that stuff so I didn't want any rough marks in it. Its now repainted and you can't even tell that I ground it down. The VHT caliper paint that you buy at the auto parts store match's the existing red pretty well so I just resprayed over all of it.

I'm pretty sure it should. As long as its a minimum 17" wheel and you get the proper spacer I would think it should work. The first step would be figuring out the offset of the wheel.
Stock ws6 wheels are 50mm I'm pretty sure from the research I've done. And you need a minimum 40mm offset to clear the breaks. A 3/4" spacer is 19mm so its a little over kill but I like the added clearance for safety.
