Not sure what all of the replies were but there was a topic about this recently. You might be able to find it with a quick search.

Not this helps but I have two wheels, '73 RS and '74 Z28 the RS wheel is the one that gets sticky not the '74. Don't know why.

3rd Gen wheels are bolt on, the Firebird is nice and so is the IROC.
