Default Attention- 2002 ZL1 owners...rear wheel fitment.

We found today that the rear 18x10 Fikse Profil 10 wheels which were ordered for a camaro are not hub centric on these ZL1 modified axles. The acorn nut only fastens the wheel via the 5 acorn recesses. Fikse says the wheels should have been ordered for a Z06 rather than a camaro. They suggest Prestige Wheel for hub centric adaptors. The current set-up on my car is not NHRA legal and with 700HP not safe. I am not blaming anybody for this but I would swear I mentioned to Fikse that these wheels were going on a camaro with Z06 brakes. Maybe not. The fronts fit fine.

Anybody else have this problem? If so what did you do? Thanks.

BTW - it appears there was a spacer installed at the axle flange to clear the wider Z06 disc. This is what causes the hub not to fit snugly to the axle. The back of the Fikse is tapered and for this application should not be. I've got a call in to Matt to see what he knows.
