1987 14” rims off of a El Camino

Will the 14” rally rims off of a 1987 El Camino fit my 1985 Camaro Sport Coupe?

great thanks for the info. They appear the same as the ones that came on a 85 but the ones I have seen pictures of that came on the Camaro were painted all grey/silver. Is that the only difference with these from the El Camino seeing how the ones from the El Camino the middle is painted black? Again thanks for the info.

The wheels were made in many varieties. They were used on Camaro, Monte Carlo, S10 and El Camino. They were made in 14" and 15" too. Depending on year and application, they could be silver with black, black with silver, or all black. The biggest difference is the tabs that the center cap snaps into. I don't remember which style caps interchange, but from what I remember, the S10 tabs do not work with Camaro centercaps. I have some S10 wheels and some El Camino center caps too, if I get some time today, I'll see how they fit. If they do fit, you won't be able to use Camaro caps without modification.

Ok so the El Camino center caps that I have evidently are for the earlier 6-hole rally wheels. I do have one single Camaro centercap, so all I could do is confirm that it in fact does not fit the tabs on the S10 version if the wheel.

If you get the wheels, I would be interested in knowing which style caps that you have to use.
