I absolutely LOVE the look these rims on Fieros.

I took a look around to see if there was a pair for

sale anywhere around me, and I found a decent

set. I've seen these on some notchies, but I can't

seem to find any pictures of them on fastbacks.


Anyone here running these rims on a fastback?

Or could someone 'shop some on mine for me?

Perhaps a pic or at least a link would certainly be of help, here.

Yes, those are the ones he's referring to; used on the Beretta GTZ between 1990 and 1993. Five spoke, body-colored 16" wheels. Not to be confused with the Beretta GTU wheels, used in 1988 and 1989 (which I have on my Fiero).

if you search i no for a fact that someone had posted pics of a burgandy/silver fastback with black GTZ rims. I might have it saved on my computer.

Correct! I've seen both styles mis-identified a few times on this forum but you're right on the money.

Here's the GTU wheels for comparison.

Yesss the Beretta rims. Sorry, I should have mentioned that.

Thanks for all who posted pictures of their rims.


I'd really like to see a fastback with these rims, but if I buy them,

there will definitely be pictures once I get some tires mounted.

Got someone to photoshop the rims on my car.

They aren't as black as they will end up being,

but I still think they look really good.

Perfect! Even the color I want mine to be.

Thanks a lot. That looks sharp.

Too bad you didn't live in Virginia Beach, We have a "pick n' pull" here and almost every 2-3 months or so I find a car with GTZ rims. I have bought two sets in the last year. Sold them to guys in the local Fiero club.
