I've got a set of Corvette ZR-1 wheels that I'm considering running on our '68 Tempest wagon.

I know its not a Chevelle, but it is an A-body and should be about the same.

Anybody runnin these wheels? I know I'll need to run the adaptors just not sure how thick.

It may not be doable, these things have about a 7" backspace on em as it is.

Thanks

A guy here named Keith Anderson runs those on his Elky.

They look great.

Sorry,that is incorrect. All Corvette wheels are 5x4.75 bolt pattern.
