an 82 should have 4 x 110mm stud pattern. Unless it has been changed out for later suspension.

I am not sure what the stock offset should be for the <84 cars

and if its for a widebody you are going to need to get your head round widths and offsets. Then take a tape measure and measure up your car to see what you can fit under that bodykit

well since you know it's an 82, then it came factory with teh "impossible to find aftermarket wheels for" 4x110.

unless the previous owner switched to the gsl-se suspension you will be very limited..

You have any phots of teh car currently? what does the "kit" consist of?
