you should be good, im not 100% sure tho, someone more experienced will probably answer soon.

Edit:

founds this on google: for rims off an 86 monte

5x4.75; most intermediate cars used this bolt pattern (El Camino, Regal, Malibu) and S-10's and S-10 Blazers also.

Trucks, Caprices, and other large cars used 5x5...so no, not all 5 bolt rims will fit.

Some aftermarket rims are "universal" fit. They either have dual bolt patterns, or they use shouldered lug nuts to center the wheel.

The bolt pattern will be the same. Usually if the backspacing is different, a car wheel will still work on a truck, but a truck wheel wont necessarily fit on a car. Not sure in your case tho, just something I noticed over the years. Trucks usually have more room in the wheel wells than cars so backspacing isnt as big of an issue.

That's true, but it's good to know if I need to order wheel spacers now or I get them and find out I need some anyway haha :P No big deal might not be able to put them on until the spring anyway, gotta paint them black.

i would doubt that the back spacing of those wheels are any deeper than 4 inches. the bolt pattern is 5x4.75. i personally think that thats kind of a waste of SS wheels but have at you.

Those rims and 3rd gen Z28 and IROC rims I see on Blazers/S10s a LOT. Should be a safe swap.

Heck, the rim you asked about at the beginning of this thread, I have seen on a 3rd Gen Camaro (80's style). It does NOT look good on the Camaro IMO (but it fit). Very interchangable.

Heck, if I am not missing my guess GM recently (in the last 5 years) I believe began re-making the 3rd Gen Camaro Z28 rims, added a completely different center cap sporting the bow tie and popped those on Blazers (or another Chevy 4x4 optioned vehicle) out of the factory (don't quote me the rims may look close, but I have no idea how EXACT they are, but they are close).
