Default Camaro to formula switch?

https://ls1tech.com/forums/midwestern-members/740471-camaro-5-stars-black-80-a.html

I am looking to purchase these from a fellow member but before I do I would like to know if they are the exact same size as my stock wheels on my 94 formula.

im guessing they are the same size so I can just switch out my old tires?

sorry I diddnt search, so if the answer is obvious go ahead and flame on..

thanks

97-02's have smaller hub center on the rear axles.
those rims look like 97 camaro wheels, and to fit them, take just a little work.

this link will help you

that link says 98+ but ive tried fitting 97 camaro wheels with same problem.
