Stay with stock 15in wheels or go with 16
Would like some opinions. Getting ready for new tires and I can stay with the stock 15in finned turbo wheels and get Cooper Cobras or go with 16in IROCs. I have a set of IROCs already, I’ll need to restore them. They’re in good shape just peeling clear coat, but will need paint. Not sure how the IROCs will look on a 84 Trans Am.

Love em, IMO the 5 spoke 16" IROC wheel is one of the best ever looking factory wheels, i've seen many firebirds with them and they look great.

Personally, I wouldn't waste my time or money on 16s. Go with 17s or keep the 15s...
