Will 2002 SS Wheels fit on a 1989 Camaro??

Like the titel says will they fit?? Is the off set right???
I have a line on a real clean 89 RS Camaro and I have these wheels just thought Id see if they will fit or not before I sell them off.

Thanks!

i used 89? WS6 wheels on my camaro for winter wheels, they stuck out a little bit, so id imagine the 02 SS wheels would fit a little inside the fenders. Not sure though

We have a "Wheels and Tires" forum.... I'll move your post there.

4th Gen wheels have large positive offsets (= large backspace). 3rd Gen wheels are closer to "0" offset (depending whether they are front or rear wheels). That's because the 3rd Gen rear axle assembly, while otherwise identical to the 4th Gen rear axle assembly, is at least 3" narrower than the 4th Gen assembly.
