Wheel adapters sizing
I'm looking in to rims, still, and am sorta lost on what size wheel adapters are required to fit different rims. After seeing the thread on the C4 sawblades on a C3 I decided to see how much those rims and tires would cost and it was less than half of what new TTIIs and tires would cost. 
So basically the question is what size adapters would I need to fit later model Corvette rims? Preferrably the 17" ones.

[/IMG]They are off a 98 SS Camaro 275 40 17 on the back and 245 45 17 up front,no flares ,the fronts did rub the frame a tad when I ran 275 up front but if I got a thicker spacer 2.50" it would fix that,
I've been running this set up for 5 yrs with no problems.
,also installed 17x11 with 315 35 17 on the back to see if it would work and had to remove rear swaybar, heres a pic.speedo says about 5 to 10 mph faster
