Why is it so hard to find SS aftermarket wheels?

I've always been under the impression that wheels are wheels are wheels--and it was just the sizes and offsets that vary.

Is it that the 20x8.5/9.5 wheels are just uncommon with wheel sizes right now?

Anyone have any leads on 20's?

I took a look at wheels next, and I liked about 3 sets of wheels out of the 35 pages....

I'm also a dealer for several brands. See my signature. Plenty of manufacturers make wheels to fit the Camaro, just not a lot of cheap Chinese options yet.

Thanks for the kind comments guys.

You first out what your looking for. Then to see the "look" that your going for then once you do so who would carry it. Nine Ball can get IForged for example.

I am able to get wheels from 1450 per set to over 12k per set.

Sooooo...here are some of the wheels I like from a design standpoint. For functionality I'm looking for something the same weight or lighter, with the same or better structural integrity. With these what I worry about is the quality levels. I don't want to support a nearly 40k car with crap...but at the same time I don't have 4k to spend on wheels either. Anyone have any experience with these wheels or wheel brands?

I really like these, as I have BBS's right now on the EVO. However at nearly $700 per wheel...wow.
