Default Need help ASAP....How do I get a wheel with 8.75" backspacing to fit?

Looking at buying a 18x10.5 wheel for the rear of the camaro. It's a wheel off a c5 corvette and the backspacing is 8.75". I called ccw and they said the highest I can go is 7.75" bs. Can I do the BFH and fit it or will I still need a hub centric spacer? Want to run a 315/30/18 btw, but can get by with something smaller.


NEED TO KNOW BY TONIGHT :-/

You'll need at least a 1" hubcentric spacer/adapter...1.25" or 1.5" may look better and sit more flush with the fenders
