no, it will look fine, just make sure the tire diameter is the same as stock, somewhere around 25.7-26" tall.

 

does anyone have a 3rd gen with aluminum butterflys?
i would like to see how it would look before i go buy new set of tires
for mine.
just a picture,or link to one would be great.
i have a set of 15x9 all around,or 14x8 for front.
thanks for any pictures,or links to.

what's a butterfly?

 

when i was a teen in late 70s we called em american butterflys.
i had a set of 15x10 rears,and 14x7 1/2 fronts on my first 69
camaro.
they call em rough cut butterflys now....don't think you can
even get the actual wheels like i have now.
the ones in link are almost the same except there 2 piece.
mine are one piece i think?


here is link to a picture.
they call it 402 libre,or 200s,or s200?

Oh, you mean "Daisies".

I may have a pic, I'll look for it.

*edit*

Found it... the wheels are just sitting in front of the car, but you get the idea.

 

blackiroc,
never heard them called daisys before.
are yours chrome,or polished?
how do you get such big pictures?

well,i put them on to see if i liked.
i believe i'll keep em on awhile.
don't laugh at those itty bitty tires in front.
it's all i could find at the time.
it needs a set of 205,or 215 in front.

They look great on there, I really like the '88 little spoiler too. For the picture, I just copied the link from my Photobucket account and pasted it in my post.

In the pic, the rear wheel is a newer polished aluminum and the front wheel is one of the original chrome ones from a while back. I actually sold them a few years ago... wish I would have kept them.

 

i gave 1000.00 for the car and put a fuel pump on it.
the motor feels really strong.is it possible to have an ho in a sport coupe?
it factory 5-speed.
the seats had covers on em,and look new underneath except one wear spot on drivers in normal getting in out place.
the dash is a cracked corner is all.
i thought about trying to repair with black silicone.
it's got a small dent in pass quarter where someone backed into him.
you can see in picture.
and he said he paid 1700.00 for the crappy paint job when he hit a deer with pass fender.
they didn't even replace fender,just tried to repair.
i am gonna find out who fixed it and let em know how sorry a job they did
on the boys car.
he got took for 1700.00....seen maaco do lots better for 600.00.
jd
i tried the lay up wheels against my 89 rs before i put em on my 88.
these were 14x8...only ones i had tires on at time.

 

I've heard them called daises...

 

Just got my new re-finished IROC's with Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 Wide Ovals....I likes em alot!!! LOL!

 

Just picked up a set of mint Camaro SS twin-spoke wheels for $170 today off of Craigslist. Needless to say, I'm VERY happy. I'll be painting them black to match the new paintjob. My decision was actually in part because of this thread, I just didn't catch any cars that had the SS wheels in gloss black.

 

Sometimes, the stock wheels dont look so bad, but if you ask me, the ZR1's are always a safe bet and Fikses cant be beat. Too bad the price is terrible!
Which rims do you think would look good on a white third gen?

 

This Z28 is EXACTLY like the one my mother had when I was growing up, same colors just hers had t-tops. This is pretty much the car responsible for my third gen infatuation! I want this! Interested in selling for a new camaro? Just keep me in mind.

 

i plan on changing to 17' bs street lites when income tax checks come in later. but heres how it sits now. for the price i bought them. 17*8 and 17*9's. jegs brand rims

 

i saw someone on here who made them into a 17 and widened them. dont remember where but they looked awesome!

 

After a lot of searching i finally found new 17 x 8 Iroc chrome wheels, here is there website http://customwheelsmarket.com/17irchwhri.html
i just got them delivered and they look great. they have a misprint in their info, they are really 17", i just thought i would pass the info along. see what you think.

 

i like the gta wheels, just the center cap kinda kills the look.

my other 83 2inc drop on gta's

 

Maybe solid black center caps with McGard black chrome lugs.

 

what color paint is that??

 

 

Nothing like the stock wheels.





Picked em up for $100. Only defect is they were labeled with tape and the adhesive needs to be removed as you can see.

 

your color is what i was looking for. what color is it? car looks great. thanks.

 

Anyone got ADR Sterlings or similar looking rims? Having difficulty finding rims that look like this with the correct bolt circle. The only ones I find are like custom-foose-superduper-120000$-pr-rim types.

 

Those look like the AR Casino player rims I had on my grand prix, not sure if those are made for rear wheel drive cars though.

 

I have a set, i havnt mounted them yet(needs spacers) i had them on my bimmer before I got rid of it. They mount up fine, just look foolish without spacers to push them out a bit.

 

i guess i'm just old but i think thhe third gen looks best centerline whheels 15x10 in the back an 15x8 up front .

 

Polished Centerlines look great at the drag strip too!

 

 

I've been searching for a new set of rims for my car forever and am very indecisive, but i think i found a set i like

what do you guys think? and will these be able to fit a 1985 iroc?

b-the-??? I saw you have a Third Gen with 17x10 and 17x12 rims i was wondering is what type of backspace did you have one them as im going with tt black m and its 17x8 front with 4.5 backspace and 18x10 rear with 6.75 backspace. Was wondering if anyone has that setup if yes post a pix or send to email carranzafermin@aol.com . Or if any one knows please let me know the information thanks.

 

I'm not trying to flame anybody else's ride, but I saw this car on craigslist and I just had to share. In my opinion, it takes big rims (even IROC's) too far.

I wonder how it rides and handles on the highway?

 

Hello All,

I am currently in Afghanistan and have limited internet time, especially during the holiday period. I managed to make it through the first 13 pages of this thread and didn't see the information I was looking for. I may be able to get some '03 Z06 wheels (17x9.5 and 18.10.5). From what I was able to read, I will need spacers to get them to fit on my '91 RS coupe. Any idea where I can get them? I may also have to "massage" the wheel well in the rear. Does anyone have these wheels already? If so, what size rubber did you have mounted?

SKIP 91

 

i looked at the website, and it doesnt list chevrolet as an option, does anyone know if they need adapters or spacers?? not too knowledgeable on wheels

 

Probably the same as it rides and handles on any other road....absolutley terrible.

 

Wow, I tried to comment, but it kept coming out with a ban somewhere. Someone just buy the car so it wont be adding to another stereo-type. Lord knows we have enough of that to deal with as it is.

 

 

either black or gold 91-92 wheels

 

^ that gold 91/92 rim looks great!

 

im sure im alone on this, but i would love love love to see the stock RS wheels in 18" diameters, polished or with the factory satin/cleared finish. anyone else?

 

I think they make them in 18...not shure..but i thought i seen a set somewhere..maybe in the bay ??!!

 

I know a member here had them made in 17" I think, maybe it was 18

 

He left the wheel center 16" and had the lip made into 17x10 I believe. Someone else had true 18's made but they didn't come cheap

 

Sorry I meant the older RS ones as seen in my sig, not the flat 91-92 style. Those are Boyd Coddington wheels. Nice, but the 91-92s aren't my style.

 

i'm thinking about these on my 92 camaro :

or these :

 

Puma, You have a sharp looking car, I like the RWL on the Z28-RS 15's.

 

I have these on my 4th gen but would run them on a 3rd gen without hesitation:

 

hey john, when did you get the roh's? just like mine.

 

Puma, a lot of people dont realize how beautiful the Z28/RS wheels really are! They have a sort of "reflectiveness" to them when the light is just right. Not only that but when you have a set that is clean, and not all beat up like yours and mine, they look really nice.

I would not mind seeing a set of 17's, preferably in the stock gray finish myself.

 

Centerline Daggers. 17x8 in front and 17x9.5 out back.
