Will XXR wheels fit my dads 88 iroc?

Hey guys I was going to order some wheels for my dads 88 iroc since he has the ORIGINAL tires on his car from 88... it's time to upgrade I think but there's not a lot of tire options for his stock wheels. I was going to get him either 17s or 18s but the bolt pattern is so hard to find to fit these cars. So my question is,
Will these fit his car?

I see some other people have xxrs on their camaros but I don't understand how they made it work if the bolt pattern doesn't line up.???

The bolt pattern on our cars is GMs common 5 lug patten. Not hard to find wheels that fit not at all. Google search it

Nope, they won't. You'll need the ones with this pattern: 5-114.3/5-120

I cant find any of the 530 xxrs in silver that match that bolt pattern and in either 17s or 18s. I believe the widest you can go without tubbing the rear is 9.5in wheels

Ctw makes a good wheel for out cars, 17x9.5, direct bolt on. Pretty light too.

Re: Will XXR wheels fit my dads 88 iroc?

If you want that style wheel would look into BMW aftermarket wheels

Arc 8 wheels are similar and light weight ctw are good wheels

Xxr 530 only the 19" wheel would fit but prob to large for your taste

I had that wheel against my iroc awhile back it is a nice cheap wheel

Re: Will XXR wheels fit my dads 88 iroc?

Majority of 5x120 will be a BMW fitment of some sort so that's where I will search

Xxr 521 I ran these wheels 18x10 all around
The ones on video couple guys are running those wheels those are xxr 526
Xxr536
Xxr 531
All have 5x120 pattern some may be larger than what your dad likes I ran up to 19 I love the look 20 just too big for me

Hope that helps

Zach, did you have to use spacers to run those XXR wheels?

For 521 yes I have a thread on them just search xxr 521 now they have a alternate off set available I'm not sure if it still available but iirc they would need a small slip on but don't quote been awhile since I've looked at the specs
