I hated the new camaros at first because of the stock wheels

THOU SHALT NOT DRIVE A CAMARO WITH THOSE WHEELS

Go for the widest possible tire with 20'" inch rims

New wheels + Stripe Kit + CAI= GOOD TO GO

I know everyone is saying get better looking wheels, but I've gotten a lot of compliments on mine. So I guess I don't understand what the big deal is. Sure, there's ALWAYS something better, but isn't that true about most things? LOL

Anyway, just my offering, consider a set of chrome trim rings.... http://www.suburbanwheelcover.com/15...18-p/1518p.htm



And yes, I've been getting compliments since before I got them, have had them for 5 months now...

Those stock rims look just fine. They fit his car perfectly. Therefore I am one of these people complimenting the stock rims.

I changed out the wheels on my LS the day after I purchased. Lowering and a front splitter will make a big difference on the LS.

+1

The 20" wheels look oversized to me. The LS Camaro with the black "gearhead" steelies looks awesome, especially on the Black cars. Very old school "rally style", IMO. I guess that's why they call them Heritage wheels?

Just people waking by, etc... Even though I've just started, I also won 3rd place in a car show back in February... with those wheels.

It's the color combo. I like the victory red/heritage wheels combo much better. Black on black or grey on black just look "meh".
