American eagle wheels, will they fit a 92?

I am buying their wheels, type 203. The guy I am buying them from said they would, but he said he bought them for his 93 firebird?
He said they had a universial bolt pattern?
Please check them out and help me.

(under two-pice, #203)

Thanks.......

If they came from a newer camaro,, the backspacing will be different and I would believe you'd need some sort of spacer.
You might want to compare the backspace with what you have now

I have Eagle Alloy type 201s on my 89 Thirdgen Firebird and they bolted up fine, no need for a spacer.

'93 was the changing year for the camaros & firebirds, different front suspension and different rear end. If the wheels were originally purchased for a 93 firebird(or else I am reading it the wrong way), the offsets are supposedly different. The actual bolt pattern isn't any different though.
