Real quick question about buying new wheels...

I've got stock GTA wheels on my 86 Bird.

These are 16x8 correct?

If this is so, any wheel I buy that is 16x8 should fit with no problems, correct?

If I'm wrong, please tell me what I need to know. Thanks.

so long as the bolt spacing and the back spacing are correct, then yes

Almost all aftermarket wheels will not fit 3rd gen cars. Even if you can find the correct offsets you may require spacers at least for the fronts.
