Wheel Fitment Question

[asudevil]

Hello All! Sorry for the dumb question but I want to make sure I am right before I waste alot of money. I found some 17" torq thrust wheels that were on a 68 camaro. I want to buy them to put on my 1970 Chevelle Malibu. Will they fit or is there a possibility they will be a different lug pattern? Thanks for your time.

Lug pattern should be the same....unless the rears were for a Ford 9" rear end. I would look into the backspacing/offset though....

As a rule they will fit unless they did not fit the camaro. Do you know the sizes and backspaces?

[asudevil]

Thanks for the help guys! As for the backspacing I do not know yet, but I will be finding out soon. Is the backspacing between a camaro and a chevelle very different? Thanks everyone!

[asudevil]

Oh yeah......By the way the sizes are 17x8 & 17x9. Thanks again!

They'll fit no problem because the Chevelle has way more wheelwell. Your only foreseeable issue will be that there's too much room to spare like a spacesaver spare on a truck but you can add some tire height and width to help fill the wheelwells out.
