Yeah that would be great hp! Would you happen to know the size of them? I dont really care what they look like haha. Just using them for the track not for looks. Thanks man.

And for anyone else. I emailed the guy asking for the lug pattern and he just sent back this "they are on z28 aluminum 2000 camaro rims..... its like your buying the tires and getting the rims for free... you can easily sell them for 150-200.... they are mintttttttttttt"

So the guy is kinda a dumba$$ so could anyone help me find the lug pattern thanks.

HAHAHA ^^^ i cant stand that. people on craigslist have no clue what they are talking about half the time.

i think they are 15x7 or 15x8 aren't they? or are they 16? he isn't gunna know. ill tell him to go look on his tire or something. From the tire we can guess the width, but we wouldnt know for sure unless someone on here knows the answer or if we took the tires off and measured...

i'll keep you posted...
