I just got off the phone with corvette specialties from Cali and they told me that they have done many 4th gen f-bodys with the 90 vette rim and that it bolts right on with no issues what so ever. I'm wondering if this shop I talked to is just a f-body hater and a wrench ****. I need some real f-body real world advice about this. Please help. Thanks

As I responded in my e-mail, there is a problem with the rear hubs on the 93-96 F-Bodies being "oversize". The inside diameer of the hub holes may need to be lightly sanded to fit over the rear hubs with no interference. It is a common problem, and is discussed in the FAQ "stickied" at the top of the "Wheels and Tires" forum topic listing.
