question about rims for my camaro..
i am looking to put on a new pair of rims for my camaro but want to make sure that they will fit. will an 18" rim that has a width of 9.5" fit on my car? and i dont mean by the bolt pattern..... will it fit in the wheel well and everything? thanks guys

The rims MAY be a bit wide, but as far as diameter it depends on the profile of the tire you use. ;) Keep it around 40 for a set of 18s and it should be fine.
You'll have to get someone else to answer you about the width though. |
Stock wheels from the later 3rd gen Camaros are 8"wide, so I don't see a problem with 9.5" wide ones as long as the backspacing is right. If you are wanting to use wheels from a 4th gen Camaro, or from a C4, 5, or 6 Vette, then those won't work unless you use wheel adapter/spacers. Backspacing on those wheels are too much for the 3rd gen, I've tried it before.

I have 17 x 9.5 in rims on my third gen. They are kinda tight, even with the two inch wheel spacers. A 10.5" tire is not supposed to go around these cars but it looks really good. If you switch to a 4th gen rear end, you will be able to run those rims in the rear without the spacers b/c the newer rear end is 4" wider.

yea, sucks man. are there any sites specific for what rims i can use on my car? they seem pretty hard to find that will fit specific to this application. or does anyone know of companies that i can try or websites that could help me out on what wheelspace and depth i should be looking for? thanks
