Are these style 5's?

[530transam]

Lately i've been thinking of picking up a 3rd gen firebird project, a GTA to be exact. I want to keep it similar to stock looking. I want it slammed, and i was thinking a good replacement for the stock lace wheels COULD be style 5's, they basically capitalize on the stock look in every way you would want them to. Bigger diameter, bigger lip, more aggressive pattern, wider. So its still the factory influence, its just a better version. Then i stumbled on this add, these are them right!? I dont see any differences but you never know!! I think it will look great on a maroon car, slammed with amazing stance maybe some spacers! Can you guys please verify for me? I wouldn't know whether to put them on my GTA or my E30 or my E36. I guess since my e30 is still 4 lug that would narrow it down, for a while

the wheels on the black one are BBS RS, you can find them in a corvette fitment pretty easy. they are a 3 piece forged wheel and you can change the lips to make them wider. they also have a stepped lip and the style 5's have a flat lip

RS>5

ive had a few sets

depending on the size, you have a few options, you can get 15" and 16" lips from black forrest industries. its a VW site, but they have RS parts (lips, bolts, center nuts, and badges) i have been seeing alot more over seas companies sellin lips and barrells on ebay also. you can get them from schmidt, and i have also heard kodiak has them as well. i got mine from image
