So I got a good deal on some s76 welds 17x6 . Going to use them on the front . The backspace is 3.5” . My question is will a 3” spacer work to run them on the front? And if so what else is needed if anything aside from the spacer? Thanks (2012 C6 base )
They will be out too far as it is, why would you need a 3” spacer?
isn’t the standard front 6.45”? I thought since the rim I have is 3.5” back space adding a 3” spacer would equal 6.5” . I don’t really know much about wheels so I’m probably wrong? Lol
Strip car that is just going straight, may get away with the spacers that thick, but car that is going to see cornering forces, to much cantilever distance off wheel hub surface, and going to wear wheel hubs out quickly instead.

so I do need spacers to run these new wheels on my vette since the wheel is short 3 in vs a oem wheel Correct?

I think yer spittin in the wind here. I think he's lookin for the cool factor. I'm with you on the abuse on the hubs.
Spacers needed?? Weld wheels help
