What year are these wheels?

When I wrecked my firebird I wrecked my girlfriend's wheels, they were a birthday present from her dad and were to go on her El Camino. The back passenger wheel is slightly damaged, and the front passenger is completely trashed. I have a 5-inch hunk of metal that used to be part of the wheel. It's destroyed.
In order to replace them for her, I need to know the year. I found a picture online of the wheels, and I know they're IROC-Z Camaro wheels....but what year? (and does anyone have one or two available)

15" = '89-90 base model IROC-Z
16" = '88-90 optional IROC-Z

'85-87 IROC wheels have different styling and where available only in 16"

Re: What year are these wheels?

The rim style in that picture is the second style Iroc wheel, and started in 88.

That particular picture shows a 15" version of that style which was NOT available in 88, but as mentioned, was the base Iroc wheel in 89 and 90.

My guess however is that the original question was in regards to the style, not the size.

I'm not sure what size they were, but thanks for the info. I found that picture on the 'Net just to show pattern, the double line as opposed to the single line. I'll be finding out tomorrow what size they are exactly.

If anyone knows where to get a set of four, or just two, or even one, please PM me.
