Re: Rims
Can't imagine those will ever get reproduced. Not an item you find every day. I'd snag 'em.

Re: Rims
You can sell your 14" Turbocast / Knight Rider ones to pay for those (or others)....

Re: Rims
They do look nice and the price is right.
Here's a link showing the wheels on a Trans AM.

I do have a preference for the Gold "Snow Flakes" but they are a little more $$$.

Re: Rims
The early 15" wheels had 215/65/15 tires...
Later years, they fattened them up to 235/60/15's....
Ron USMC and I both got Mickey Thompson Sportsman ST's (street tires)...
They're just over $100 each, we are both happy with them...
I got 235's up front, and 245's in the rear, he got a little bigger combo and it looks great on 15" wheels...

Re: Rims
I need to get at least 15 inch rims, hard to fine stock. Wish they made aftermarket.
Sanded and painted mine a few times. Looks good but too small.

Re: Rims
Throw them up on Ebay, put Knight Rider in the title and get $400+ for both the wheels and he caps!
Ask Ron about his 15 inch rims, not stock, but very nice looking !!!
