Wheel spacers
Wheel spacers
Question is NOT about the Camaro, its about the ZR2.
Basically, the rear axle of what seems like only 2003 S10 ZR2's are not centered when there is no weight in the bed, being further out on the drivers side. This in addition to the rear track of ZR2's being not as wide as the front track, makes many owners throw on rather large spacers on the rear. Now, it seems to be fine, having not heard of any real problems with this on the trucks, but I seem to remember reading on here numerous times that wheels spacers are inherently bad things to use and to steer away from them.
So whats the deal? Good, bad, horrible, ok?
The wheel spacers would be 2" on the passenger side and 1" on the drivers side.

1" and 2" pieces are not "spacers". They should be billet adapters, like the ones sold by:

Bolting the adapter to the hub, and then bolting the wheel to the adapter is a lot different than getting super long studs and sandwiching a thick plate between the wheel and the hub. Maybe you meant "adapter"..... but I just wanted to make sure.
