Pics of my newly installed IROC rear wheels are
in the Pics section under 79 Monza HB
(Redmonza327).
Installation was a breeze once I got the 1" adapters and found
the correct "bulge" style lugnuts (the open ended
ones were hard to find in 7/16" thread). The adapter
fit perfectly. The wheels had a 5/8" offset (4 5/8"
back spacing). The 1" adapter brought the back spacing
to 3 5/8" which turned out to be perfect. I have
225-55-R16 tires mounted and have about 1/2" clearance
between the inner tire wall and the inner fender wall. No
rubbing so far, but I havent driven it too much either.
Sure hooks up a hell of a lot better than with the
205-60-13 tire under it!!!
Now I just need to
convert the front to 5-Lug....
