93 Z28 Wheel Fitment

Hey everyone! I'm new here and have been reading through all the posts...lots of good information!

I just got a 93 Z28, its my first. One of the rims is messed up so I am going to replace all four of them. I found a deal for a set of the ZR-1 style 5-spoke rims off a 98 SS running 275/40 tires.

I was trying to find some information on whether or not they will fit but I can't. If anyone has these rims on their Z or knows if they'll fit please let me know!

Thanks for all the help!

If they were on a 4th Generation Camaro before, they should fit fine.

The one problem you may have is getting the rear wheels to mount on the oversize rear axle hubs that were used from 1993-96. If there is an interference between the rear axle hub and the inside diameter of the wheel hub hole, the inside diameter of the hole needs to be sanded are ground slightly to allow the wheel to fit over the hub. Logically, you would do all 4 wheels, so you can rotate the tires in the future. Do not try and force the wheel over the hub by tightening down on the lugs... the wheel can get stuck, and you can damage it.

This info is on the FAQ on the Wheels and Tires forum, where this could have been posted.

I concur my 93 has 97 rims and I still have to do the front ones so I can rotate.
