Default Just want to make sure....

Quick Question....

I just want to make sure that if I buy these rims theywill fit.

http://www.wheelhq.com/hypersilver-c...x95-wheel.html

Bolt Pattern: 5x4.75 inch
(5x120.65mm)

The reason im asking if b/c I bought a set of newer f-body rims for my lt1 and they would not fit on the back.. will I have troubles if i but these...

also.. Will there pr problems if i get 8.5" up from and 9.5" in the back? the off set one the 8.5" is +56mm and the 9.5 is +50mm will it looks funny at all?

The link you posted doesn't show a specific wheel, just the main website. You may want to check out TomzWheels.com and compare prices too...

They didn't fit over the center hub because the older F body's (96 and older I believe) had a bigger center hub than the newer ones (97+). You don't want to try and force them on either.

That is normal. Either ream the hole out a little bit, or better yet, cut the hub button diameter down so the wheel fits over it.
