Default Couple Transam Questions

I have a 1986 Transam, I bought it with a set GTA wheels that where painted charcoal and not that long ago I cracked the front right one so I need a new one, I cant find any online and I dont know where to buy one. There 17 inches I believe and the only sizes I can find are 15's and 16's, there the crosslace ones with chrome around the outside. Anyone know where to get them from ?

Also I see they sell Duraflex Body Kits for the older Transam, Front/Back Bumper with side skirts, I cant find a picture of a Transam with this body kit, I want to see what it looks like before I buy it....

Help appreciated !

Default Wheel Size

Can I purchase any rim for a 86 Trans am as long as it has a 5 bolt with a 4.75 bolt pattern ?

Just wondering

Those wheels would be 16 or 15 inch (more than likely 16). Just go look at what the tire says to confirm.

Asking about body kits on this site will get you nothing but insults.

Not a chance. The best body kits imo are so subtle that you don't even know it's different unless you really knew the car... Not something that transforms the car into something unrecognizable.

I have a set of 4 original 16" snowflake Trans Am wheels.

Correct offset front and rear to accomodate rear disc brakes.

Condition is good, but not excellent. They do run true without vibration.

Doesn't sound like your doing a restoration, but pm me if you want pics.
