Just put. 97camaro RS rims on my 94 firebird. It wobbles pretty badly at 45 plus. I observed the wheel.while in motion seems bent. If a wheel is bent badly enough to do that would it hold air as well as or does? Wheels and tires are same size as others. What else could it be?

the inside hub diameter may be wrong not allowing the wheel to sit flush.

What about spacers? Anything like that? I'm stuck with these wheels is there any other options?

if you use spacers which i do not reccomend, you may need to replace the studs as well to get the wheels nuts on securely.

First off thanks a ton for the advice thus far dude I really appreciate it. Another question, why is it not a good idea to use spacers? And will tuner lugs work instead of replacing the studs maybe?

you change the location of the pressure on the bearings by moving the wheels out more.

tuner lugs may work but you need additional bite for the nuts
