Still looking for rims?

I have 4 grey lace rims from low mileage 87 GT, with wheel lock nuts.

Rear tires are oversize and less than 5% worn.  Fronts re 75% worn.

Ottawa area.  Let me know.

What size and would they fit on my '84? 

Do you have a pic (I'm not sure what lace rims look like).

Thanks!

Cheers, Derek

The Fiero bolt pattern never changed throughout the car's life.  In other words, all OEM Fiero rims will fit on all Fieros.  The only quirk is that the front wheels from a 88 have a slightly different offset than those from 84-87.

87GT's rims will be similar to those in the attached photo.

Question:  Will putting on 15" tires affect my spedometer or do I compensate with different tire heights (or whatever it is called)?

Yes, your speedo will be affected.  How much depends upon the difference in circumference between your original tires & the new ones.

You can use the tire size calculator found at this link to see the effect of non-stock tire sizes.

Derek,
I'm in Toronto on business today and tomorrow, but back in Ottawa Thursday late afternoon.  Incidentally I'm in Kingston almost every weekend so could arrange to bring the rims to Kingston (where I'm moving to in new year any way).

I also have several brake pieces you may be interested in as I upgraded in thye past an am doing a further one currently.
