Corvette Wheels?
Are there any Corvette wheels that will fit my '83 stepside?
Im guessing they would have to be the 5x5 bolt pattern to work? |

Re: Corvette Wheels?
You can change your bolt pattern to 5x4.75 easily enough, but as far as offset and whatnot, I'm not sure. But a set of Z06 style wheels would look tasty on your stepper.

Re: Corvette Wheels?
bolt pattern can be changed by redrilling tha rotors & axles/drums..but tha backspace is the bigger issues..quality spacer/adapters will have to be used.

Re: Corvette Wheels?
ABS brakes in Orange,CA makes a rotor in 5on4 3/4 bolt pattern. Have the rear re-drilled. Otherwise adapters. Most adapters are an inch thick. If your talkn about modern vette wheels, they have a FWD offset. Really hard to pull that off on these trucks. Best bet is to choose different wheels.

Re: Corvette Wheels?
I read some where on here also that you can get a certain year camaro front rotor that has the exact same dimensions as a square body front rotor.

Re: Corvette Wheels?
Not rallies-I was thinking about newer era wheels from the C4s and C5s.
