Here's one that came to mind from the Wheel sticky at the top of the page...there are many more with Corvette or 4th gen rims....

17x8 SLP ZR-1 wheels. About 4.5" of backspacing. No need to run spacers.

SLP makes ZR1 style wheels for Thirdgens,(which is what is on that blue car above) which has the correct backspacing for 2nd adn first gens Camaros. 4th gens have a more FWD offset, which is why there are fitment problems.
