I am not a fan of the smaller wheels but it looks good on your Camaro. I like the new tires.

Our paint schemes and exterior MODS are similar...our cars even have the same name! lol

Tony knows what he is doing so you should be OK.
Take LOTS of pics when you get them on!

Nice offset and wheel choice. Gotta say though...you need to lose the mudflaps. They don't flow well on your car.

Yeah, some people don't like them but it keeps the rock chips to a minimum and it sure beats taping up my quarter panels everytime I go to the track.

I had my drag radials on for about 100 miles...they stick out slightly and you can't imagine how much crap the tires throw up on the rear panels. I couldn't wait til I got them off and the stocks back on. When you're at the strip, it's a necessary evil, but for the street, I wouldn't want them sticking out. I was even thinking about the small factory extensions like mud flap thingys?????

You have the wrong offset wheels if your drag radials stick out. these stick out just a hair and I can't stand it.

You may have said already, but what springs do you have on it and how much is it lowered?

BMR 1" all the way around, but it actually lowers it closer to 1.25"

Ok cool. I have the Eibach 1" springs on mine so it should be similar.
