They'd fit. But they'd probably look bad.

Re: Knight Rider Wheels on a camaro?

Well, i really wanted to get an idea of how they would look. I don't have much knowledge of how to do this, and if it is someone picture on here, sorry if you don't want me to use your car. I can remove it if you want. It isn't the best photoshop job, but you get the basic idea.

Re: Knight Rider Wheels on a camaro?

Looks like you made a 20" version

I had mine media blasted, edges polished & clear powder coated, so they look nice and clean very easily (not so in thier normal state of rough cast)...







They are 15"s & there is no offset difference, as some of the later years did... I put them on 245 wide tires (stock for those rims was 215) and on my 91 Formula... No problems...



And unless you find a set for cheap (not ebay), they're getin harder to find...

Re: Knight Rider Wheels on a camaro?

If you had a set of those wheels for your Camaro you could sell them on Esplay and buy a nice set of IROC or Vette wheels. You would still have enough money left over to make a house payment or two

Re: Knight Rider Wheels on a camaro?

I kinda like it. As long as the Camaro is all black. I dont think anything else would go with it. Thanks. Those photoshops are much better than what i made.
