Wheel spacers

[Slowside]

First off whats up I am brand new to the site been browing for a few weeks finally making my first post.


I have a 1994 Camaro 3.4 with a five spoke I want to say firebird wheel that has ABS written in the middle. They currently are all wrapped in 245's which I like a lot.


But the car just does not have the stance that I desire. So I am wanting to get wheel spacers and am curious to what size you guys run what different sizes look like and maybe some tips.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Wheel spacers

not a good idea to run wheel spacers . the rim is centerd by the wheel hub . if u do use wheel spacer you are looking for problems . i would be looking into different rims .with offset to get what you are looking for .

Re: Wheel spacers

I would disagree. I am in the process of trying to fit 19x11 on the rear. If you search ebay, only buy the HUB CENTRIC spacers, that will minimize the extra play mentioned above! You might pay a few extra bucks for machining, but the hub centric fits on the current hub and the spacer has a lip for the wheels. P255/40/18 and P295/35/19. Currently have 275/40/17 without spacers on 17x9.5s

Re: Wheel spacers

Theres guys running 17X11 with 325 series tires width, he said he rolled the fenders and had to pound in the wheel well but they fit without spacers. So that is pretty wide, I might try some 17 X11 chrome ZR1's in the rear with 315's , just for the look of them is bad @ss. For my front Prostars I have a 1/4" universal spacers from Summit so they don't hit the caliper. My DD are 17 X 9.5 ZR1's with 275/40/17's and they don't even come close to having any problems. Also I wouldn't run wheel spacers until you really need them, if you have 16 X8 rims , run 255/50/16's they will give you more stance.

Re: Wheel spacers

I am checking but I think my wheels are Z06 wheels and 19x11 in the back, maybe 19x10.5? I do not know the offset, but they are touching the inside of the wheel well, 295/30/19. I ordered the 1.25" and if that is too thick, I'll just put them on the front and order something thinner. There is about a 1-1.25" to get even with the top of the fender well.
