stupid rim question
Hi guys I am looking at the 5 spoke zr1 rims for my 85 corvette and I am retarded the hole offset thing pisses me off to no end because it differes from year to year was the some majic new hub design they implied or what anyway I want to run the same deep dish on all four rims I found some on ebay at 17x11 with 36mm offsets and was just woundering if it would work on all four or does there have to be a stagered offset from front to back any help would be great thanks.

Stupid rims or stupid question?
36mm offset will work fine on all 4 for your year
There are only 2 offsets .
84 - 87
and 88+
(ZR1's have own staggered offsets )
Simple
In '88 ;the rear brake change needed more room for the new caliper bracket so the hub was moved out 18mm per side needing 18mm (50 vs 32 ) more offset on the wheels to put them back in original position
