will 1977 snowflake alloys fit my 1996 Camaro

Like the title says, will 1977 snowflake alloys fit my 1996 Camaro?

If so, does anyonew have any pictures of them? I know the offset will be wrong and they'll stick out a bit more but i'm just wondering how much more.

Cheers

I don't think the '77 rims will fit, but Year One makes a 17in replica for 4th Gens.

When I 1st bought my 94 it had 4 rotten tires on it so what I did was I got my original rims off my 72 Camaro and put them on until I had the money to buy rims and tires. It did stick out but only a little bit but the only problem my car had was it riding a little rough and the 2 front tires were rubbing on the wheel wells. Here's what it looked like...







The car looked bad then but.... Looks alot better now!

Might as well get TT2's, they will look sharp. Or just go with some ZR1's. LOL

Thanks for the Help guys. The problem is i'm in the UK so Year One would be a good option but i'd have to mortgage my house for the shipping lol. That's the prob, most of the parts i want are in the states and the shipping is shocking. like the 3 piece lip spoiler i'm after :(

I know it may sound a little Crazy to put these wheels on but i'm doing a bit of a project. I'm trying to capture a modern day "Bandit" style Trans Am theme.

Now i went for the camaro as it had the 4 square lights on the front and looked more like the early T/A than the new Firebirds do.

I've got some plans for the car and if it looks crap, i'll just turn it back to Stock :)

Snowflakes are definitely a Pontiac, not Chevy design (hexagons/honeycombs are a Pontiac theme). However, if you're trying to make it look sort of like an old bandit, then yes, snowflakes are the way to go...

Got the wheels and they don't fit on the fronts :(

The calipers scrape the inner edge as they have a slight wide lip on the inside about halfway in.

Good news ins that the tyre place says that shaving about 5 mil off the caliper carriers will sort this problem out :)
