I was searching for pictures of black IROC rims. There are almost no pics of black IROC rims, I did find a rim similar. The Jeep srt8 comes with 20" iroc like rims. I actually like the Jeep rims better, as you can see the replica dose NOT have the srt8 logo on the rims.

They don't have all the same creases the IROC rims have. What do you like better? Do you have pic of these on a IROC?

blakecharles

Always thought those would look good on a IROC

blakecharles

sorry, I been a bit busy... I have been doing some homework on this and will post the results soon.

oscarsrs

they look more like BIG rs wheels than Iroc's , just so this in another post and they look just like the trucks minus the polish lip and trim

Not black, but they are '04 Chrysler "Graphite". Sorry about them being on a S-10, but they are IROC wheels.

Do you have an update on this? I saw an srt8 jeep today and was thinking those wheels would look sweet on a 3rd gen.

blakecharles

Nah, no update yet. I'm still getting body work done. I did ask about these rims, I was told that it was possible. The have to be "made to fit". These rims are big! 10in deep rear and 9in in front. When I get some sort of mock-up, I will take some pics.

FYI: I'm still not sure I want to use these (they just happen to have a set at the shop).

supersoaker

thanks for the quick reply.

I did a little research and I know that the lug pattern on our f-bodies are 5x120.70(correct me if I'm wrong please) but the lug pattern on those rims are 5x127. A little ebay searching and I found some Wheel Adapters 5 Lug 5x120.65 To 5x127 Spacers 1.5"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wheel...311149010r2659

would this work? it gives it an extra 1.5 inch space to counter the offset and width of the rim correct? would that 120.65 fit our 120.70 lug pattern?

our lug pattern is 5x4.75", which works out to 5x120.65mm, so the adapters you described are the right bolt pattern.

Sorry but I don't have time right now to work out the offset numbers for the adapter thickness. In the end, won't you end up spending more including adapters than getting the aftermarket IROC ones? And wouldn't you also have "SRT" cast into those rims? Also, the Iroc replicas are available in smaller sizes like 18", which work a lot better on our cars than 20s do for several reasons.

supersoaker

Yea I figured if I go the srt route I'd probably be spending more for oem rims, different size tires and spacers. I guess I was just trying to also do something different--seeing how no one has done this yet, if i don't like the way they look or feel--I can always sell em and pick up some irocs. I'm rolling stock gta web wheels right now, just looking to try something different other than throwing vette whells or massive irocs on a third gen.

blakecharles

what size rims look best is a matter or opinion. where I'm from, we ride big rims... I'm not a fan of anything over 20" on a car. I have 20" irocs on my car (soon to be black). I think the fronts are just too wide, there are no size options for this wheel

The replicas dont have the srt8 stamp btw

itsMikey

20"
