    Considering the Spare is a 15", I would have thought the answer would be yes, but make sure that the PCD of the bolt holes is correct.

    Might also have to worry about offset's and such.

      thats right i didnt even consider the spare...i cant decide whether i should get all new winter wheels/tires...or just get the snow tires they make for my 18s ..they're solid chrome so its not like they'll rust or anything...im just concerned about the loss of traction from a wider tire...hmmmmm...i dunno...thanks for the info man [img]smile.gif[/img]

        make sure the backspacing is right or you will have to grind down the calipers or they will stick out like a lowrider.

          I would go buy new wheels that are 15". If you dont already have some 16's, you can probably find some peice of crap 16's on the board for $100-$200.

            I pretty sure that 98+ got a 16" spare tire due to the 13" front brake rotors and bigger, dual piston brake calipers.

            Just purchase some stock Camaro steel wheels and hubcaps for your winter tire needs. ;)

              here something to think about. the 18" wheel is wider so more rubber on the snow compared to the 16". if you got the winter tire for it, that would be more winter tire on the ground compared to the 16"s :D
