didnt want to say it but now that you did lol I like the wheels that were on it better then the irocs.

Teds89IROC 05-07-2009 05:22 PM

I always liked the GTA wheels but the iroc wheels look good too

Masonite 05-07-2009 05:26 PM

yeah, i can't say the GTA wheels looked BAD, but i definitely prefer 5-spokes over anything. the old GTA wheels will be up for sale soon. might be dismounting the tires first.

NastyEllEssWon 05-07-2009 05:57 PM

i liked the look of the crosslaces too...just polish them up and clean em

enRo 05-07-2009 06:15 PM

That car needs to be dropped at LEAST 1.5 inches. :lol: There is such a huge gap between the 1/4 panel and rear wheels. But, I am a fan of IROC's on 3rd birds, just not a fan of maroon paint in general. Looks good.

same here

69BirdX 05-07-2009 06:38 PM

I say that mostly becasue i miss my 91 gta and i think them wheels are sexy. But the 5 spokes look great to.

The ones previously on his car aren't GTA wheels. I think the Irocs are a nice step up from the factory wheels.

Correct. The wheels on the car were 15's... GTAs are 16's... and IMHO, look much better

beat me to it!! lol his old rims are the base model rims that the V6 usually came with... the GTA's and later TA's had a much deeper dish and the crosslace was gold for GTA and black for TA...

u did however cross brands lol, but looks much better, get some arrow head decals for the center caps

thanks, lol. yeah, at the moment it's hard to see, but it says "IROC-Z" on those center caps XD

baddest434 05-07-2009 08:58 PM

right now they're sitting. probably going to dismount the tires and use them on another car (MAYBE... the rear ones are starting to show signs of dry rot), and probably sell the rims. i've got a thread going for all my "for sale" parts. will update when the rims go on.

here's the thread: http://www.njfboa.org/forums/showthread.php?t=43787

What he said.

Tru2Chevy 05-09-2009 06:03 PM

The IROCs do look much nicer than the 15" crosslaces (not GTA / WS6 wheels, as previously stated). You mention 245s out back....not upfront as well?

correct, 245's in the back. 215's in the front, down from a 225
