FD wheels on my 91 vert
This may be redundant but help anyway, please.
What do I need to make FD wheels fit my 91 vert, both are 5 lug is everything else the same or will I need anything else.
Many thanks

You need at least 5/8" spacers in the front and depending what type of spacers you may need longer studs. I used ARP camaro/vette racing studs on mine. They were 1/10th the price of the ones for Mazda racing. Can't remember who made the Mazda ones

These MIGHT be them but i'm not sure. It's been a while since i got them. I know i only had to use them for the fronts.

Another thing i noticed is my front tires are wearing badly on the inside but i haven't looked into it yet since i'm on vacation. I suppose i need the camber changed or whatever. If anyone else has had this problem leave the info here.

I don't understand all the weird advice...
You'll need around a 1" spacer - I dunno how people are clearing with just 5/8" unless you're running tires narrower than 225 widths?
ARP makes Buick metric studs that are the same thread pitch - 12mm x 1.5 - they fit on the stock hubs.  No need for these spacers, if you run "offset" 25mm spacers.
