    There has been NO guess work in the answers i have given i already know what works properly and safely.....Do purchase anadj. panhard bar to make the rear centered especially if the car is lowered....In addition hub-centric is not mandatory for these small sizes, hell i had 3" on my s10 w/17x11 GS wheels NO HUB-CENTRIC adapters....you will be fine
    Clearly and well written my man.

    quote [ would use 1/4,3/8 or 5/16.... try to use the smallest spacer you can. if you need the larger size i strongly suggest you swap out the wheel studs for a longer set. i used the set for a 97-99 c5 they are 10mm longer. ]


    still was confused then he straitened it out

    definately no offense taken,i just want it to be clarified BEFORE you go spending cash on parts......the parts i specified will get you rollin safe and will fill the wells properly.
    EDIT*
    i would get the longer studs no matter which wheel spacer you decide to get!


    thank you POPO, i know you have done the very same mods!

    are the c5 studs stronger because people have told me to go to arp wheel studs for the extra stregh for the spacers moving the stress point
