I believe the double stripe IROC wheels were available in a 15" version in 88/89

My friend had a bare bones 86 iroc with a 305 carb engine that was all original but it had the basic 5 star aluminum 15" inch wheels with the bigger center caps that said iroc on them.

The IROC package ,RPO-B4Z, included the 16" wheels '85-'87. For some reason ,cost savings most probably, Chevrolet did a de-content of the package in '88 so the IROC came with 15" wheels standard. As ThirdGen Ranch stated the 15" star 5 spoke wheels were standard on the Z28 '82-'87 and the RS after that. They became standard on the IROC before the double line 15" wheels were introduced.
