he i bid on 95 trans am rims to go on my 91 1st gen s10, i guess i was bidding with out thinking of whether or not the bolt pattern will like up. I know 98ssonsos likes these kind of questions but anyone have any idea or imput onto my future outlook of these rims...

 

[92S10LB]

yeah the bolt pattern is the same but you will probably need spacers cause they have to much backspace

 

[whitebowtie9]

sounds good tony, thanks :thumbup

 

[92S10LB]

i know about those wheels is cuase i wanted the same ones lol :thumbup:

 

[whitebowtie9]

yeah i like them, i hope i win them because they already come with tires and it'll save me alot of trouble. They would looks sweet on my truck:werd:

I'm in a simular boat. I know the bolt pattern is the same, but how much spacer do I need? Should I get longer studs and a spacer, or the 5 to 5 spacers with studs on them? How bad will these MoFo's rub the A frame? What size meats can I put on them? And what kind of drop can I put on my truck after words? I want Iroc's ,but it's kind of hard to pass up a set of 96 T/A Rims with rubber on them for $150 bucks!:shrug:

hey i ended up buying the trans am rims, i think they look sweeeet. when i get them and get my lowering kit ill do it all at once and take pictures of it for you guys.

Cool...I think you will need spacers though...I am almost positive.

They should have the same backspace as a zq8 wheel 5" I think
if they are 16" wheels.

 

[rhenry01]

Cool...there is set of the same wheels for sale in the Trading post for $75. I think I'll get them!

I've decide to forget about the T/A rims. I read somewhere else on this board that they hade almost 7 inches of backspacing and the spacers for them to make it fit are like 80 buck a pair. :jawdrop:

I just bought spacers cuz I bought 18" saleen look-a-like wheels and they should have the same b/s as the new gen camaro/firebirds. And my spacers cost me right at $200!

I had the 95 trans ams on my 95 S-10...... 2" spacers up front and 2 to 2 and a half in the back. they look great, but if you drive alot its hard to get balanced right. lots of vibration

 

[rhenry01]

I'l think I'll pass on them now that I've heard the horror stories!

My friend has the RS wheels from a Camaro on his 96 s-10, and the bolt pattern was just a puss* hair off, so he had to cut, I dont know if they are the same bolt pattern as the trans-am.

 

[xtremer-pxl]

Hold the phone....

the camaro wheels should have the same bolt pattern as the s10, He shouldn't have had to cut anything.

And thats a Nice Ride!

 

[chrisbo]

You wouldnt believe how much of a pubic hair it was off. We were even surprised! It was freakin' weird.
