Re: Stock 92 wheels modified to 17x11
IIRC the early GTA wheels are a 2 peice design. If that's true and you could find a set of those, it should be easy. Would love to see if a 1 peice GTA wheel can be made 17" tho since they are still making them.

My set is of my old '86 T/A. They were the factory wheels. How would I tell they are indeed 2 pc?

No, they aren't 2 pieces. The only difference is those "dimples" at the ends of the crosslaces. The early ones (through 87) don't have then,

Good to know. Thanks for clarifing. Don't remember where I heard that, but I thought that was odd of a factory wheel when I did.

I've seen some with faux rivets/allen head bolts, but I think those were the 15" Fiero ones. Those have little slots at the end, where the dimple is.

Re: Stock 92 wheels modified to 17x11
I was more referring to wheels that can actually be taken apart. Our crosslaces were borrowed from the Buicks. They had crosslaces starting in 85 (i think, maybe 86).

Re: Stock 92 wheels modified to 17x11
Thats correct, they cont come apart, "2pc" wheels are simple wheels that start life as a center and a hoop, them are welded together. 3pc wheels, bolt together and can be take apart. I dont think they make 2pc bolted together wheels, but io could be wrong.

Re: Stock 92 wheels modified to 17x11
Since I had my rear 2 wheels widened, does that qualify them as 2-pc wheels now?
