These are the 10 "swirrel" type spoke wheels off the newer Camaro.I was told the offset may be too negative to fit the Malibu. Anyone know?

I do believe that you will need 4 "REAR" wheels to make it work right.

You need spacers to make them fit, around 2.5 inches I think. The spacers cost about $300-400.

Thanks guys. I'm going to pass on the wheels. I like them, but not "that" much.
