Default wheel stud hole centres

can anyone please tell me the centres (stud to stud) of the stud holes for a stock 1987 vette wheel?
also, are they the same centres as the 1988 model?
im looking at after market brake rotors and most companies list 88-96 models, but not 84-87....
so wondering if i can fit the 88 rotors on my 87.
all feedback much appreciated

No
Different rotors 84 - 87 and 88-96
Stud pattern and center bore the same.The late rotor will fit but your caliper won't
Stud pattern usually listed as PCD; the diameter of the stud circle , in Chevy case 4.75"
What are you after; replacement or upgrade?

Get your local brake shop to check the RDA ( aust brand ) listings, I got a set of late model rotors from them.
DBA don't have anything for early.
