opinions on this wheel

You could add a spacer to get the wheel/tire positioned correctly. I had to do that on my '70 when I switched to ZR-1 type wheels. They're a little tough to see in the picture below (click on it to see a bigger image) but in person they're fairly easy to spot. If all you need is an inch they would be almost invisible.

I'd send them back and get the correct offset

[Artic93]

so 13mm difference will be about an inch to narrow? I don't have the wheels bought yet.

[Kevin]

the offset won't impact the width of the wheel, just how it sits on the car

[Artic93]

Ok , will a spacer really make it look correct, and is that safe?

[guinnessdood]

An inch spacer is pretty healthy...and you'll have to use longer wheels studs I would imagine. I would not opt for the incorrect offset wheels myself.

[Artic93]

yeah I'm cooling on the idea ...damn! I guess I'll stick with my original older chrome and try and make 'em look nice.

you can try and find some with the correct rear offset, or find stock oem ones and have them pced any color you want. I maybe talking to jeff when i get my next car

Then just try to find the right ones. That's a much better solution than spacers. They shouldn't be too hard to find in the correct offset.

easy to find.....expensive to buy ,close to 1500 just about everywhere for A molds...for 93 silver finish... next to impossible
