Default Alumastar fitment

Ive got c5z brakes on the front of my Chevelle. I’ve searched and seen pics of the 17” weld alumastar on the front of C5’s but not sure if you guys are using a spacer or not? Any help appreciated.

I run them on mine but I’m running smaller rear brakes up front so I’m not much help, from the center of wheel to inside lip is roughly 7 1/2 inches, you might be able to measure center to outside caliper and get somewhat of an idea, I also run them on a 12’ zl1 with huge 6 piston calipers but with 1” adapter so they’ll definitely work you just may have to space them slightly to make them fit
