Does anyone know exactly what the wheels on this car are called? The pictures don't really help me out, but a lot of you guys on here seem to know your **** pretty well. Here's a link http://amarillo.craigslist.org/cto/1672748708.html

Anyway when I was leaving sonic today a guy approached my car and asked if I would be interested in trading him my wheels for these. Currently I have stock t/a wheels I got for $80 on my car because I let one of my friends drive my car and he didn't realize curbs weren't ment for driving into therefore killing one of my z06 wheels..FAIL! The guy who wants to trade is selling his t/a so he thinks with my wheels it will help him out a bit.. He told me to look on craigslist to see his wheels but I can hardly tell?? So I figured someone on here may know based on his pics.

Hope someone can help! Thanks.

They look like Eagle 077s. They are a very common, cheap wheel. Do what you like, its not like stock T/A wheels aren't a dime a dozen.

Yeah thats more than likely what they are, I searched around on google to see if I could find a camaro similar to mine with those wheels and I actually came across a picture that I'm pleased with. They might not be the most high quality wheels out there, but after seeing this pic I'm going to make the trade.. Besides a Camaro wasn't meant to have T/A wheels anyway..

Go for it, they would look better than the T/A wheels on your Camaro.

They aren't going to be anything serious, I'm just going to have them on till I get my z06 wheel replaced.. Having trans am wheels on my car doesn't sit right with me. Plus if trading this guy helps him sell his car a tiny bit better I'd like to know I helped another f-body guy out. If I could get some money saved up id like to get some chrome torque thrusts or maybe some hp evos, always liked those.

I hope you don't plan on running wide tires. I think the widest they make those wheels in is 8".
