Just my opinion but I don't think they flow well with the car. Also, I think they're heavy wheels too.

I'm running 18" TSW Nurburgrings on my SS btw.

I looked at them and liked them, decided to go back to look at them again and didnīt like them, then I looked at them again and liked them. I think the reason is that they seem to be very "deep", something I donīt really like. I like the style of it though, just wish they werenīt so deep, If you know what I mean. Because of the angle of the picture I like the front wheel a lot better than the rear wheel.

Probably the worst explenation ever, but at least I gave it a try

To me the "Halibrand" style wheel looks good but are too closely associated with the Shelby Cobra and Eleanor to be on a Camaro.

I like 'em! I almost ordered the gray ones right before I decided to go all crazy with my current drag set-up. But yes, they're probably fairly heavy.....all cast wheel.
