Wheel size help

Just wondering if these will fit on a 94 Camaro? 17x9.5 (54mm offset) and 18x10.5 (56mm offset).
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Doug

The 17x9.5's are fine. The 18x10.5 with a 56mm offset will most likely put the inside edge of the tire into the inner fender, and cause the wheel to catch on the edge of the jounce bumper bracket when you jack the car. The backspace is close to 7.90", and that is actually about the same as the photos shown for the hammering and bracket cutting required for the 11" wide 50mm offset (7.93" BS) wheels.

Not all individual cars are the same. Some people have put them on with no problems, others have had to hammer and grind.

I think you'd be okay though you'd probably have to grind on that bumper bracket for good clearance from rubbing.

What wheels are they?
