Ok, working on the T/A... Thinking of putting a set of 16x8 IROCs on... I photoshopped them into a '79 T/A - what do you guys think?

TO ME
The ONLY wheel appearing on a 2nd Gen F Body Firebird are the classics
Cragar SS
American Daisy wheels

IF I AM CORRECT
I recall back in the 1960's the Ralley 1 was a steel slotted wheel with a black plastic center cap.
The Ralley 2 was the 5 SPOKE mag style that came on the Trans Ams & Firebirds of the 70's.
There was a 15 x 8" 5 spoke ralley as I recall having one on the free 70's disc brake Firebird rear axle I scored.

Cragar SS are a perfect compliment as are the American Racing Daisy pattern.
Minilites look perfect, too.
Those factory 5 spoke mag style wheels are very proper, too.

you are correct. even had themon the 76 Bonnie
don't like the Ralley I wheels, even though pontiac

I've seen pics of 3rd gens w/the rally wheels, & pics of 2nd gens w/the 3rd gen T/A wheels. I just didn't think they went good like that.

What's also nice
is the Pontiac 5 spoke wheels on S-10 Blazers!
I have the factory steel mags on my Blazer
Always wanted to change them (that costs money)
YET
Factory optioned mag always look right on my Blazer

Keystone Kustom Wheels, the chrome spoked ones ALSO VERY PROPER on the 2nd gen F body!
