Trans Am with Iroc / Z28 Rims?

Hey guys,

I searched but couldn't find any pics of T/A's with Iroc rims on it. Reason being, I just picked up an '84 T/A with an L69 / WS6 package and 5 speed! and the rims are ugly as hell. I used to have a 91 camaro with the RS rims, and I want to see pics of anyone's T/A with camaro rims. (the T/A has the 88-92 GFX on it too!)

Help a brother out!

Thanks!

Don't worry bud... My friend had to do the same thing (what else could one do upon seeing that ?? ) when he saw what caused my flat. I have to say though.. I'm much more cautious driving over r.r. tracks now...

lmao, now where did I put my vice grips.
I'll be more then happy to send them back to you Mark.. they're a little worse for wear tho now . You know.. sometimes free.. isn't all that great...
At least they weren't good tires...

Hey Deadbird,

Got any more pics of the bird? Those are the exact rims I want to put on it. I'll take some pics when I get home in a few hours, and put a pic of the old (new to me) bird.

Also, what problems were there if any when you swapped in 4th gen seats?


Thanks!
FRDH8R

I've had 7 sets of wheels on my car. I am going to stick with the OZ's I have now, until I find something different.

I've also had 4 different sets of seats, 4 different spoilers, Carb, then TPI, and now LT4, 4 different exhausts, 3 different steering wheels......

What can I say, I like change.

I should make a page showing all the different wheels/spoilers I have had. I'll do that later today.

You know.. that just screams for a smartazz picture post but I'll refrain
The seats just bolt in like the old ones.
Here's another angle.. that's it though.. it's too cold/nasty outside to be taking pics.

Hehe, yeah that is a lot of change.

Thanks.
I am going to have to keep them, I am too poor to change them.
I need to stick to a set schedule of what is to be done with the car. The TPI swap I did last year took way too long. I kept changing things in the middle and needed more money. I had 3 different wheels on my car while it was in for the swap.
I have already swapped my WS6 wheels for these OZ's, and if a set of 17x11 and 17x9 ZR1's come my way, the OZ's are gone.
