3rd gen rims on a 2nd gen Firebird????
I've got a couple of questions about the 16x8 GTA crosslace rims.
Will these fit okay on a 1980 Firebird? How about the 15x8 version?
Also, I have seen the GTA rims referred to as "fronts" and "rears".
What is the difference in the front and back? Is it the back spacing?
I was thinking of putting GTA rims on my 1980 Esprit for a different look, and I want to be sure before I look into buying anything.
Thanks for your help!

3rd gen wheels should fit the second gen, might have some rubbing on the front but i think that happens only when putting those wheels on a first gen. The offset is different front and back on those wheels. It is stamped on the back if they are fronts or back.
