Looking to get a set soon, going with 10/11 graphite combo. It is my understanding spacers are needed to fit a stock 2016 SS. Do the spacers come with the wheel or where can I get them?

No spacers are needed for this application, where have you heard that?

Id be more then happy to talk fitment with you, pricing and guide you on tire sizing and such that is appropriate for the car.

Let me know.

Some people running a square setup with 10" wheels and 285 tires report needing a spacer on the front to keep from rubbing. There are a few threads about it if you want to search a bit.

For instance all the 275/35/20 & 285/30/20 tires clear the strut, so im curious to check it out so ill research it.

I've seen a lot of those threads because I'm interested in that setup as well but nobody ever mentioned rubbing. The spacers were always related to squaring the wheels from front to back based on the differences between the front and rear hub faces. If there is a thread about 285s rubbing please point me to it. I have been looking at this and chatting with the wheel manufacturers and forum members for months.

285/30/20 & 305/30/20 is a safe bet for staggered setups no issues guys.

Too much misinformation and misunderstanding on the use of spacers.
With custom wheels such as these, they are designed to fit properly. No spacers needed.
Tire size has little to do with spacers, you buy a tire to big it will rub / hit with or without spacers.
If you buy an off they shelf wheel with an offset that is to high, you will need a spacer to push it out away from the suspension.
Then you have those that want to keep everything 'square' within a MM or so and use thin spacers to line everything up.

The use of spacers...the proper use of spacers....will open up hundreds of options when it comes to wheels
