Original Wheel Size??
Can anyone tell me if the 1985 Camaro Z28 was originally equipped with 15 or 16 inch wheels?
If it orginally came with 15's, what would I need to do to fit 16 inch iroc single lines?

Re: Original Wheel Size??
the only difference is a slight change in the length of the front steering stop. other than that, they will fit no differently on your car than they would on a car that had the 16' from the factory.
even the steering stop is almost a non issue. I have the 16x8 crosslaces on my 92 bird that had stock 15" wheels, and i dont have any abnormal issues with clearance and rubbing. I dont even have steering stops FWIW
