2010 camaro 20" wheels, don't know how well they would fit or what the bolt pattern or off set is on them but just had to photochop some onto my van. They sure look good on paper

As for as i know its the origanal paint. I bought this van from the 1st owners and they told me that they custom ordered this piant job when they bought it new in 1990. There are a couple of small door ding in it but thats it. There isn't a drop of rust on it anywhere and until I started the V8 swap the Interior looked brand new. Now the carpet need to be cleaned around the doghouse. Also found out the 2010 Camaro wheels are 5x4.75 bolt pattern

5 on 4.75 is bad news for the van but good news for my s-10. i was looking at the 20s that are on a volkswagon tourag(sp?) those would look nice on the van. wonder whats the pattern on them

Those wheels look killer on there! Shouldn't be hard to find something comparable to those in our bolt pattern. :think:

I found this about the Touareg.

Touareg bolt pattern [highlight=yellow]5/120[/highlight] center hole 65,1mm ET/Offset 54mm bolt size 14mm

Touareg V6,V8,V10 bolt pattern [highlight=yellow]5/130[/highlight] center hole 71,6mm ET/Offset 60mm bolt size 14mm

I do not know if there is any difference between Europe and the U.S.

This 1987 V8 Astro belonged formerly to a friend of mine. He mounted spindles and disc brake from a Camaro on it to change the boltpattern. In the rear he just drilled new holes in the axels and the brake drum for the new pattern. I don´t know what year of Camaro it was, but he say it was just "bolt on".

if the 2010 rims are like the old camaros you may need a spacer but if they are like the iroc series the bolt pattern is a 4.75x5 not a 5x5 but with a lil coin it can be machined out and balanced. I just bought some irocs on craigslist wit rubber for 150 and spent about 50 to get them done and I love them on mine. Those look great on yours best of wishes to you on the idea :coolphotos:

You know guys there is companies that sell wheel adapters that sandwich on between the rotor and wheel to change your bolt pattern. That is if you dont mind the wheels poking out a little bit.

That is always an option but for the vans with a lot of torque or like to go off-roading, it may not be the best idea. I can give you tons of people who use spacers and swear by them but anything you move the wheel further away from the ball joints, it puts a tremendous amount of pressure on those joints.

I have been and talked with my friend about it. He said: "It's Astro (dropped) spindles on it with gen3 Camaro rotors and callipers". He also pointed out that it was the Camaro's big brakes, not the small ones. And that it was "bolt on". In the rear he drilled new holes in the axels.
