BMW wheels on Trans Am!!!
BMW wheels on Trans Am!!! Just got my wheels installed this past weekend!
I had black C5 Z06 replicas (the ones with the rivets) before.
new wheel specs:
Miro 942
5x120
18x9.5 (all four)
40mm offset
22lbs each (no tire, just wheel)
Wheels have 72.6mm center bore size (used a hub centric adapter, 72.6mm to 70.3mm)
Any questions, let me know.
I'll post more pics later

Wheel spoke to stock brake clearance (plenty of room for Brembos :hint

The wheels have a 72.6 center bore and the car has a 70.3 center bore.
Other than that, they bolt on fine. The original bolt pattern is 5x120.7mm, so the only difference is negligible at 0.7mm.
I like it! Many people will argue the bolt pattern difference, but I don't think it will hurt. Unless you are running tons of power launching off the line all the time.
I want to see side view!

Thanks!
Thanks! Here it is. Great store to work with. I got them the next day (I live a few cities away from their store)
Looks great man! I also am running a OEM style BMW wheel on mine. the bolt pattern is nothing to worry about, you split that 0.7mm in 5 ways for each lug nut....just a hair off. I have a friend here in town running them on a chevy II also. and all his cars are proven to make power www.417motorsports.net
