Re: anyone ever run these- trans ma gta wheels
They are 5 x 4.75 bolt pattern, wont fit a fullsize, but they would fit an S10. Wouldnt mind having a set for my GTO, but unless they are already in Michigan or Wisconsin, it isnt in the interesting area yet.
B bodys like Catalina/Bonneville, Olds 88/98 and Buick Centurions have the 5x5 as do later Impala SS, but most of them had unimpressive wheels. The Imp SS had some nice wheels if you like 5 spokes. |

Re: anyone ever run these- trans ma gta wheels
they do make an adapter/spacer to bolt the 4.75 wheels to a 5" vehicle.

I think they do make adapters. I like those wheels with black centers.

Re: anyone ever run these- trans ma gta wheels
Not only are those different bolt pattern wheels, but they also have different backspacing, front to rear -- that may be an issue as well.

Re: anyone ever run these- trans am gta wheels
Yeah fronts and rears are different, on my Buick it will take the fronts on all 4 corners (of the Buick) without modification, to use the rears requires spacers.
What most people do (for the turbo Buicks) is put the rears on the front with a spacer, and the fronts on the rear without spacer, or the holy grail, 4 fronts with no spacers. |
