Is a rear from a 96 Camaro a straight bolt into an 85 ? Are they wider , wondering if wheels will still fit.

e brake cables are different, 2 inches wider per side, yes original wheels will fit, but will stick out an additional 2" per side.... if ur not into that look, start looking for 4th gen wheels.

nobody should be into that look, 4th gen rear NEEDS 4th gen offset

I may be CrAzY , but that doesn't mean I like UGLY ! Tires sticking out looks OK on some OLD SCHOOL rides but not 3rd Gens ( IMO ).This car is lowered anyway there isn't 2" of room from tires to fenders now.I am looking for a decent posi for my 3rd gen and came across a good deal on a 4th gen. Not going to happen ! Thanks guys

That doesn't look all that bad ! Still won't work for me but they are just flush , not sticking out like some people have on 2nd gens and such.
