I am looking at some used Tru Spoke rims for my 78 Trans Am. They are 15x8 inch and have a 5 hole 5 inch bolt pattern with 5 inch back space and a bolt in spacer plate that is
3/4 of a inch, which would give 4 1/4 back space. Will they fit?Thanks for any help you can give!

yup they will fit

Probably, but they are butt ugly compared to the OEM snowflake rims it likely came with :).

You think so? I had a buddy that had a 78 with Tru Spokes and I thought they were pretty sharp. I would really like to have a set of Cragar SST's like I had on my old '80 but apparently Cragar doesn't make them anymore.
Btw, it came with butt ugly rally's. ;-)
Thanks for the help.

Yup. I like the OEM turbo flows or snowflakes. Two of the best looking wheels out there. Joe--ASE Certified Parts Specialist & 10th Ann.Club Tech Director '80 Carousel Red Turbo T/A, 26k orig.

um... 1 problem the T/A has a 5x 4 3/4 bolt pattern not a 5x5
Is there an adaptor I can buy that will make them useable?
