Hi
Can someone please tell me if these wheels will fit my 98 z28 and what offset and bolt pattern i need to ask for? been having so much trouble getting wheels being in the UK, hoping the search is over!
Oh and does anyone think they look a bit tacky? ideally i'd get zr1's or something, but the shipping to UK and import tax makes it too expensive

Thanks

@1BAD02WS6 Those wheels looks great, I'm sold on them now, I was wondering, what made you choose 8 on the front? was it clearance issue?

9.5" wide will fit fine

You want to get the correct bolt pattern though.

Fbody bolt pattern is 5 x 120.7mm or 5 x 4.75''.

A 5x112 or 5x114.3 bolt pattern will not work.
