Default 92 camero wheels on 85 Monte Carlo

Hey everyone I'm new here and wanted to know what to do about my issue. I have a 85 Monte Carlo and I got a set of wheels from a 92 camero mounted them up and the rub so I need to know what to do. If I put on spacers the studs will be too short and so on. So I'm lost any help would be appreciated. Thanks

option 1 get correct wheels for the car,
option 2 get longer studs, and spacers,

the reason it is rubbing is becuase they do not have the correct back spacing

Agreed ^^^^

Some spacers u buy have studs on them, those are usually the thicker ones though

If I put on the ones with studs built in they are weak aluminum and might break if I hit a bump. And I definatly don't want them to stick out the side of the car. I don't like that look. If I pop off one of the studs and take it to autozone will they have a longer one? I've seen other Monte with wheels that look just like these but I don't know.

The longer studs are definitely the way to go. AutoZone, Oreily's, Pep Boys, Napa, and just about any other auto part store you can think of should all have the longer studs you are looking for. Good luck and post some pics once you get a chance.

They are the 16x8 five spoke wheels with lines in each spoke. They have different offsets.
