:cheers: I think your friend will need to use spacers behind the wheels to get them out.
Rear end set up on ZR1 was wider, I believe, but I could be wrong

And maybe the guy with the 85 doesn't have adapters :confused: Different backspacing...but it should rub at 11in I think :eek:

An actual ZR1 (rear) wheel has the same offset as 84-87 vettes, so it doesnt need a spacer plate. It should fit fine.

What about the fronts?
