    Should fit with no problems depending on the rim back spacing and tire type. He would have to re-ajust the front turn stops to 5/8" so the tires don't rub.

    All of the Corvette rally wheels, 15x7 and 15x8 and the Camaro rally wheels, 14x6, 14x7 are 5 x 4 3/4 bolt pattern and will fit first and second gen. vans. Tire size is another issue altogether especially in the front.

    I have about 2 mm to spare in the front turn radius on mine.

    15" American Racing, (7.5" i think)

    Rear tire size 275 60 R15
    Front tire size 255 60 R15

    I think any bigger and you have to cut the fenders.
