How common uncommon is this
How common uncommon is this
Don't know how my IROC ended up having 4 REAR rims on it but it has.
I have spacers made up on the front ones. The rears also have spacers but from what I have heard that is normal and they all have spacers on the back??
Well since I have 4 rear rims on the car I thought I could simply rotate my tyres. Hahaha like always something has to come up. I changed the rims around and thought beauty all done.
But nope the front right rim hit the strut lip and if I drove it like that I would have taken off some nice material along my rim.
I thought to myself WTF??
Took the RIMS back off and what do you know that RIM was a 16x8x20!
All the rest of the rear rims are 16x8x16.
I emailed GM about this asking if they had different sizes for the IROC rims but I never heard back from them. So I have to run that rim on the back.
Anyone else have a rim size of 16x8x20??

only thing i can think of is one of your rims was replaced. i believe there was a different rear wheel offset for irocs and z28s with 16 inch wheels and disc brakes or drum brakes. that would be my only explanation for it.
Many Z-28 Irocs and IROC-Zs had rims marked as front and rear. Why GM did this I dont Know, but if you search on ebay you can find the correct rims for both the front and back. Or else try contacting WWW.fparts.us they can get you the propper rims for either the front back or both as can www.thirdgenresource.com
