Stock Wheels

I have an 88 IROC with the stock 16X8 wheels. I want to get a pair of slicks mounted on another set of wheels and want to know if the stock 15" Z28 wheels are a decent choice.

Probably looking at a 26X9X15 ET Drag. Are the 15" wheels 7" wide? Will this wheel and tire combo fit alright on my B/W 9 bolt rear?

Yes the stock wheels are 15X7", they should fit a 26X9X15 drag tire just fine. You could look up what the manufactor recommends just to make sure.

Are the 15X7's the same front and rear. The IROC wheels are not.
