1979 z28

[xupd48twr]

can anyone tell me the best way (if any) to fit z06 crovette wheels on a 79' z28.

i guess it all depends on the tire size? You might need spacers not sure.

[mike mitchell]

you cant use those wheels. the off set is to deep. you would hit the rear leafs before you would get close to touching the wheel studs. you could spend a bunch of dough on having them narrowed. but thats the only way of doing it.

[79-Z]

what about spacers?

[BBCAM]

Common sense says the spacers would be way to large to allow safe operation I wouldent even think about using factory wheels , there are aftermarket ones that are made to fit properly with the correct offset but the price can be high , personal opinnion says any spacer larger than 1/4" is too large to use in a car thats driven theres just too much stress on the lugs and that makes for a dangerous ride ...

Jason thats why you are the man!

Hey BBCam i noticed in your signature you got your car registered on Pinks did you already race or waiting to race?

[79-Z]

I think hes waiting...cuase i havnt seen his car race yet and i usually watch pinks every week. cant wait to see it.

[BBCAM]

Im currently just registered which means I can go to any of the events and run as an alternate or be matched up if there are enough slots , but the only way I would be able to run would be if the taped close by as i don't have the vacation time to travel ..and I allready made a tenitive deal to trade my car off for the Pro Street firebird so I probably wont be on anytime soon ....

[79-Z]

cool, whos got the prostreet firebird your tradin for? what year? you got any extra parts from your car that your not giving with the car? questions for ya

[BBCAM]

I have quite a few parts around for the 2nd and 3rd gen cars seems like someone in the club allways needs stuff , The firebird is a 84 that has been updated to look like a 91 I helped one of the guys in my club build it and he's tired of it so we made a little trade deal, heres a pic with both his cars (the black 80 Z is his wifes) and his bird with my 78 on the side
