    I think you have your labels reversed.

    The top one is a late style w/more clearance for ea82 calipers.I have a set of both.

    Late wheels fit early cars,but,early wheels don`t clear ea82 calipers.

    I do not know what size spacer you need.

    Didn`t someone grind  calipers for early wheel clearance on a late car?

    Ah. OK.  That makes sense that more clearance would be "Late".

    Is a 1987 DL Wagon is "late" in this context?

  2. I have a 1987 DL Wagon with the steel wheels.  I want to put some white spokes on it.  I remember from prior research that there were white spokes available for the EA-82 cars, and that they fit later cars, but not the other way around. 

    I bought some wheels off ebay and seem to have 3 late and 1 early.  I looked at the rest of the wheels the guy has for sale and it looks like including the one early wheel I have he has a grand total of 3.  SAD.

    I assume I'll need spacers.  So I don't have to guess, anyone know what values I'd have to put in on this page?  https://www.uswheeladapters.com/shop/custom-4-lug-wheel-spacers/

    Also, is the difference even noticeable?  I was thinking of just getting another "late" style so they match.
