Junkyard Wheels

[jshilli1]

I'm looking for some 16" wheels for street duty. Lots of road hazards here, I was thinking some of the later model steel wheels off of a cop-car caprice with the small chrome hubs would look slick on my GN and not mind the occassional pothole while I get my stock rims refinished/replaced. Has anyone tried these?

WRONG BOLT PATTERN. DOUBT IF YOU'LL FIND ANY 16" WHEELS YOU CAN USE IN A YARD. POSSIBLY FIREBIRD 16" (not tta style) BUT I THINK YOU NEED ALL FRONTS. I RUN IROC WHEELS......ALL FRONTS.

You could probably get some 16" IROC wheels off of ebay for $50 ea.

The yards I go to, they already take the wheels off...bastards...

Yeap, Caprice cop cars use 15" and wrong bolt pattern. I have Firebird snowflakes that I use for autocross. You can only use the fronts. Seems every one wants the IROCs but the snowflakes go unnoticed. Eric Fisher

Is anyone running later ('93 up) 16" F-body rims?

They need 2" adapters to work. If somebody made a set of 4 adapters for about $50, I'd run them. Vettebrakes wants $200+ for adapters.
