Good looking wheel.
Unfortunately is does not appear to be available in the correct 5 x 4.75" (120.65mm) bolt circle for the 3rd and 4th Gen F-Bodies. It's available in 120mm, and that's the BMW pattern. While the mismatch may seem small, there are reports of people experiencing broken studs and loose lug nuts when running the 120mm bolt circle. Others have posted that they have run them with no problem. Appears to be a bit of a crap shoot.
I ran that specific wheel through the "will it fit my car" routine at wheelfire.com, and the result was:

Fred-
I was only using this link for the picture. I'm aware of the correct bolt pattern (5 x 120.65mm) and the company I'm purchasing the wheel from has the correct fitment. I know there is a lot of debate on the bolt pattern topic; I'm sticking with what we know works.
