I am looking to buy 4 3rd Gen 16x8 rear wheels (16mm offset). I would like to fit some tires to them and see if I can stuff them under the wheel wells of my 4th gen Firebird. I would prefer the T/A honeycomb wheels, but I will wait and see what kind of choices that I get.
Thanks. |

Keith, now that I remember these are for a 4th gen CMC car, I think the rules state the track of the entire assembly cannot be any wider than with stock wheels, and I believe you have to use 4th gen wheels or equivalent offset with a 4th gen rear to keep that. No CMCer has used 3rd gen honeycombs on a 4th gen to my knowledge. Good question for Al.
