Of course they didnt count on "B" she gave them a quick lesson in Workplace Relations and what their responsabilities were - with the help of the Fairwork Commision.

You'll need spacers to put 88 - 96 wheels on your 87. The offset is greater post 88. Ecklers have them. If you put late wheels on your 87 they will foul on the front when turning.

Vettech:
I had a feeling that there was an issue in sizing. those Ecklers are not just spacers, they are an adapter, I would hazard a guess that the stud pattern is different, otherwise for $199 I would take off discs and press out the studs and put in longer ones and use the alloy spacers that were on these Senator wheels before I machined out the centres to allow it to sit right down onto the hub, the Senators dont hit or interfere but then they are not as wide (˜ 235ish). Why is everything so bloody hard!?!?!

Vettech:
Here is another question - 84 - 87 have 8.5" front and rear - Yes?
The ZR1 had 8.5"/9.5" or 9.5"/9.5"  any one ?!?!
