will these fit?
I just found these wheels on CL SanFran Bay area. Does anybody know if this offset will work on my 87 cpe. They are PRETTY wide!!!
Complete Custom Wheel 17X12 (yes, that's 12" wide!) Classic alloys with Hoosier 315/35-17 R3S03 race tires. Backspacing is 5 3/8";

I run 17 x 12 CCWs with 315s on the rear of my '85. I've never had a problem. I'm not sure of the backspacing. I'm sure if you called CCW they could give you the answer. If you need any changes they can do it for you.
My next step it to go 17 X 12 all the way around. Kuhmo wants me to run 315s on all 4 corners. You find some pictures on my blog.

Man that is one nice a nice no Bull Sh%t car in your blog!
Thanks for taking the time to respond. Love the blog!
I was just having a momentary lapse of reason with the CCWs. I'm better now, I'm back on the meds, 255 16s are enough.
Thanks for the responses crew,

no it wont fit...that backspace leaves you with over six inches towards the outside. My Zr-1's have almost a seven inch backspace and only three plus inches on the outside and they stick out 1/2 inch on my 87 vette. 12 inch is too big
