    They look great on that car. I will say this though. You might want a set of spacer on the rear to bring the wheels and tires out a bit. If I remember those wheels had two different offsets front to rear.

    Thanks Stickman,I thought about spacers in the rear but thanks to the gbody curse, on the driver side the rear wheel sits perfect which means I would only be able to run 1 spacer.I had the same problem with my el camino too but it has adjustable rear upper arms to fix that problem tha wagon doesnt

    Just check out my garage, there are a few pics of it with those rims on it.

    I am unsure if I am keeping the bullets on there or finding a set of Buick stickers or something similar on the center caps. I am adding home made wide whites though, I already have them made I just need to get them mounted.

    The only thing that I hate about my car is the 5 on 5 bolt pattern, this limits the rim possibility so much.

    Here is a write up on the way I made my center caps.

    I just cant get past the TT2's. They were just perfect. And I love the GTA wheels, I just think they'd work better on something smaller.
