Default What wheels are on my car?

I'm just curious if anyone knows what these wheels are called?

They were on the car when I got it, they are 15's. I'm wanting to get 295's for the rear but I don't know yet what width the rear wheels are.

Front



Rear (no center caps) moser axles and very large wheel studs, I guess centers wouldn't fit.



Thanks guys.

Looks like Jegs Sport Star 2's.. Are the lug nuts a tapered acorn style?

Thanks, that does look like them. I think I may have 15x8 on the back. I would like to buy some 15x10s, but my car has a ford 9 inch rear and moser 35 spline axles. I'm not sure if that would affect what backspacing I would need? Also, when people swap rearends/axles on these cars, do they keep the stock camaro wheel bolt pattern?

Yeah most keep the stock 5x4.75 lug pattern. If your rear end isnt narrowed, then you're pretty much limited to the 15x8 in that paricular wheel. A 15x10 needs a 7.5 backspace on a stock width rear end & im pretty sure Jegs doesnt offer that wheel with that correct spacing on the 15x10

Thanks, I might just go with a 295 on the 15x8. Is there a way I can check and see if they have narrowed the rear?

I would bet that if the car has a 15x8 wheel that its most likey not narrowed.

Need an opinion. I'm thinking about getting these in 15x10 for the rear. Same design as my front wheels but these are weld brand. I think my fronts are jegs version of the weld

Would it look mismatched?
