Re: buying a GTV6



OK. The '"wineglass" wheel I'm speaking of were made by Speedline and 
for 1986 they were non -metric (15-inch to be precise). I don't know 
about the 1985 model. But a knowledgeable young friend tells me that  
the so-called "phone-dial"-type wheels (5 big holes) were standard in 
the USA for at least PART of 1985, and these WERE metric (I've one for 
a 'spare' in my car that I want to replace).
