Lets just imagine for a second that I can get a REALLY good deal on some 2001 Vette Z06 wheels in the anthracite color. These are exactly what I want, but I do not know about the fit or offset on them, any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!! I have a 70 Chevelle with a stock 12 bolt and slighlty modified suspension, but nothing major. I have trimmed the rear wheel wells so that should help with the width, but what would I have to do with spacing on them? I am going to try to get details on the wheel size as soon as possible, but until, please help me, Thanks greatly in advance!

I want to do this too, but spacers seem absolutely necessary. Was planning to pick up a set from www.skulte.com (http://www.skulte.com)
