4th gen trans am/firebird wheels on a 92 camaro? Trade mine?

Anybody ever seen a 3rd gen camaro with the 5 star type 4th gen pontiac rims on it? I want to trade my 92 Z 5 star rims for some 5 star rims, or sell them for a reasonable offer. Rims are in great shape, and look good.

But, I need to know if anyone has pics, or has seen this done (the pontiac 4th gen rims on a 3rd gen camaro)and will it work?

Tell me if you have a trade or want them

Ya thats what I was thinking. I want some good looking 5 star rims, but need to sell my rims first. I will stay with 16" but I want my camaro to stand out a little more, and alot of camaros have the 91-92 rims on them.

I am putting 5 star wheels off a 1997 Firebird on my daughter's 1992 Firebird as soon as a friend sends me the spacers. I think they look GREAT!

Nice editing work Stuart. GOFASTER, yes they will work you just need some wheel adapters from either www.vettebrakes.com or www.skulte.com. Most people seem to be satisified with 2.25" up front and 1.5" for the rear. Here's a picture of my car with 98' SS rims on it.
