Default Edelbrock Wheels

When I go to the Edelbrock site; I get all wrapped up in size, offset, backspacing, and Bolt Circle. My measurements do not exactly fit the wheels.

Now when I flip open the Corvette Central Catalog the wheels I want are right there with just the sizes indicated. There is nothing on offset, backspacing and Bolt Circle.

So, if I order from CC how can I be assured of getting the right wheels?

:confused:

Yeah, they'll have all the specs when you talk to them. They're great looking wheels.

I don't see where there is a lot to be gained by going larger, especially since the tires are nearly new.
