changing 1987 wheels to Z06 wheels
Now that I have the engine under control I have another question
I have a set of Z06 chrome wheels with tire I have taken off my
99 C5 vette and would like to put them on the C4 1987 as anyone
done this change over and please let me know just what was needed
to do this change? The wheels on the 87 are 16's all the way round
and I'd like to put 17x8.5 frt. and 18x10.5 back.
