My brother has a black 95 trans-am and is looking to put black wheels on it, he wants to put 17" mustang bullit wheels black with the chrome lip and deep dish bullits in the back i was wondering if they would fit

heres the specs

17x10.5" deep dish rear wheel
Wheel Backspacing: 6.84" Wheel Offset: +27mm bolt pattern: 5 x 4.5 inch

17x9" front regular dish wheel
Wheel Backspacing: 5.95" Wheel Offset: +24mm bolt pattern: 5 x 4.5 inch

any help would greatly be appreciated because he;s selling the car to me next year and i think the wheels would look amazing even though they're for a rustang thanks

nope will not fitt you have a 5x4.75 lug patern same as 5x120,65mm
most bmw wheels will fit with 5x120mm lug pattern hope it helps!

the BMW pattern (5x120mm) is not recommended... there have been instances where the wheels have come off while driving... this is due to vibrations and nuts coming loose... if you ever go with this alternative, make sure you torque the nuts frequently.
Make sure you have the proper pattern and that the wheels are hubcentric.

I would just get a set of Torque Thrust II wheels and have them powdercoated.
