2002 TA wheels on my 95 Z28?

Will a set of 02 TA wheels fit on my 95 Z28?

I am thinking of buying these tomorrow but I want to know for sure.

The ad has a mistake in it, indicating the metric conversion of 5 x 4.75" is 5 x 120mm. Actually, it would be 120.65mm.

But that's not important. The wheels will bolt directly on your car WITH ONE MINOR CORRECTION. As explained in the Wheel and Tire FAQ ("stickied" at the top of this forums topic listing page), the 93-96 4th Gen rear axle hubs are larger than the front hubs. This problem was corrected in 1997, with the rear axle hubs being made smaller to match the front hubs. The hub holes in the wheels were made smaller to match the rear hub diameter.

As a result, to fit the 02 wheels on your 95, you will probably need to lightly sand or grind (Dremel) the inside diameter of the 02 wheel hub holes, until they fit loosely over the 95 axle hubs. I would do all 4 wheels, so you can rotate the tires/wheels in the future.
