Default 16 inch irocs

looking to sell these so i can upgrade to 18s, they have falken tires, fronts still have plenty of tread, but rears have..well they look like slicks for some reason.... Hopefully someone wants these, i like them but i have wanted18s for a long time so hope they sell quick!

Those are original 3rd gen wheels, with 3rd gen backspacing, right?

yes they are original 3rd wheels. Not sure of the back spacing, have to check google, but they should bolt up to any fbody i would assume.

Its complicated - they will bolt up just fine, but the offset/backspacing is wrong - a third generation F-body has much less negative offset than a fourth generation F-body. I had beautiful ROH ZR6 wheels on my '86 Camaro, but I couldn't use them on my 'vert - I tried, but they stuck out about an inch beyond the fender, and I'm just not into the roller skate look.

On a completely unrelated note, looks like you've got a neat project started with the S10. 350 swap? It looks cool with the Iroc wheels.

I would be interested, but stock 3rd gen wheels stick out some on a 4th gen, not really a look that works for me. They will look nice on something, I once had those on an '87 Iroc, always liked those wheels.

what if you flipped them so the rears were upfront and the fronts were outback? that would have the fronts wheels sit more inward than wouldnt it?

Yea, I'm not sure, I know they had some different offset setups on 3rd Gen's, and the last 3rd Gen wheels I tried out definitely didn't look right.
