    yup 2 inch spacers is what you need to run them. I believe they will stick out a little further then the 3rd gen wheels tho.

        I looked over on TGO and didnt find a direct answer but yes it appears you will ne the spacers all the way around the car, so both front and back and I believe 2 inches is the spacer you will need. Heck I am running 1 inch spacers on my car and I have 3rd gen wheels..

          3rd gen front offset is 0 so its centered(8 inches wide, front)..if you run 2 inch spacers the fronts will tuck just the same. the rears are not centered off set...i believe the backspacing for factory Z or T/a wheels 8 inches wide are five inches backspace.. so the rears will stick out a hair farther then factory...will look really good.

            ...not a fan of 4th gen wheels on a 3rd gen. The rims have too flat of a face with no dish at all.
            Just doesn't look right to me. But that's my opinion.

            I really like the rims on James Camaro. And i like the TTII's like I have.
