Used GTA wheels? Depends on your idea of "cheap".

third gen f body 16x8s fronts

gtas if you can find them
an alternative is the third gen ws6 16x8 rims used on the 84 limited and then 85-86 ws6 cars, also called hitech , and then similar on the formulas up to 88 which were WS6 (they look similar to the trans am Ws6 but have the rivets around the center) , they were offset front /rears like the gta so you need to find fronts
heres a link for an idea on the rim style
eBay Motors: WHEEL FIREBIRD TRANS AM 1985 1986 1987 16" FRONT (item 160162829584 end time Dec-27-07 11:50:54 PST)

third gen camaro (iroc ) 16x8s would also work but again youll be looking for fronts
