just got 3 of these rims




Gotta find one more....any ideas??

Also...anyone have any idea what year Z28 these rims came on??

 

I'm semi-almost certain those never came on any year 3rdgen Z28's. Those do however look alot like the wheels that came on monte carlo's and s-10/15 trucks.

 

i believe they came on camaros for like one year (84?? ), but you are right they came on teh montycarlos im almost dead certain of that, i sort of like them cause they are more rare/unique...

 

I only say what I do because they are not pictured in the collision guide... http://www.deadbird.org/pncam/c19.htm (#2 is a similar but, steel stamped wheel)

 

Those rims are referrered to as "hammer" rims. I am sure the camaro never got those from factory but I am pretty sure the Monte did on the SS models. They should fit since they are 15x7 with no problems. Monte's used the same front spacing but different rear spacing. Front f-bod rims on the back of a G-bod takes care of that. But with 15x7 you shouldn't have a problem. Should look pretty good on a dark colored bird.

 

No, they aren't HAMMER rims! Those were on 80 and 81 Z28's (2nd Gen). And yes they were used on the Monte Carlo SS' too! My dad has 3 sitting at our house in NY!

 

good call, i knew that they were on camaros but only for a year or two, now i remember... i was loking at buying a third gen and the perosn was goign to give me the choice of those or the norm. five spoke, and explained to me what they were off of... anyone have a pic of these on a third gen?
tj

 

theyre definately off a z28 of some year...thats what the center caps say if u can see them...ive seen montes and other GM cars with versions of this rim as well...any ideas where i can get one more?? Topless91RS..maybe ur dad wants to get rid of one?? Im in NY too...

 

RITCutie, i will call him tonight and see what he says!

 

aiight thanks man! Looks like id have to paint the black on if i want it to match the others??

 

Yup, late 2nd gen Z28 mags. I think those would look hairy on a 3rdgen.. been thinking about doing that myself.

 

will they fit i mean the backspacing??

 

i put 2 of my wheels on the back of the bird and it looks like they fit just fine...i may have to change to bigger lug nuts though

 

Lol, no where did he mention rims from thirdgen, just said they were z28 rims to put on his 2.8l firebird.

Those are 2ndgen Z28 rims.


Id like to see how those would look on a thirdgen.

 

Nowhere did I say I was sober when I posted either

 

well as soon as i can get one more rim and then some tires ill post pics of how it looks....like i said i already tried em on the back and it looks a thousand times better than the 14's with ghetto hubcaps on em...
