Hey LS-3 Captain, I may have mis-read this, but.................... based on what PQ said and you're reply, I think others may question your uhmmmmm..... man-hood.... though I have no doubt, I'm just saying.... :bellyroll:...though I understand you may just be playing the psychological card on PQ....

These are the wheels I'm seriously considering...I really understand your trials, I have spent hours and hours looking at wheels....

NO,,, I'm ok now... just a momentary lapse... I'm good. and dayum I like that wheel... :thumbsup:

20's max. Having the great powerband you have does no good if you can't get it to the ground... ;)

The 5 spokes you displayed so far look great !!
I like the Bonspeeds.

Yep... I called and got a quote on the BS Malibus. I'm still partial to that Polished billet wheel look from my Sport truck days... :D

:laughabove: he loves the company...

If you like 5 Spokes... these HRE Wheels are pure muscle and my favorites.. very pricy though...

Well, the good news... I'm getting a quote ready... I really don't have a way to pay for them right now. While the Wife is in school we're single income... so Camaro funds are not really there. But Sean @ WSAIZ is working up a quote for my rims and tires...

Heres a couple shots. I also lowered my car while I was photoshopin' the wheels....

:D

Before and after. :thumbsup:

The wheels look sweet. Ummm... are you sure they are not supposed to be the other way around though? Those directional wheels are supposed to go on a certain way (L or R). They look backward to me - like the left wheels are on the right side of the car. Can you flip them the other way?

Maybe I'm wrong... happens a lot.

PS: Your car looks GREAT lowered.

Now the bad....
THR 22 has been wounded in battle...

the bummer is it is 200% my fault.

Luckily it's only gonna cost about $400 to fix.... so Add $400 to my wheel budget... :facepalm:

I backed into a Chevy truck who was parked on the drivers side of me you can see the Parking Lot below. the truck was a 2500 crew cab, extended bed beast. So his bumper was way behind the bumper of my car... but plenty of room between the cars so I didn't notice it when I put my stuff in the trunk... I've been working mid shifts and just put in a 12 hour day and so I was pretty out of it anyway.....

Luckily its not bad at all and I wasn't really even that upset.... A guy in a Grand Sport Vette saw it happen... He was pretty upset... Which I thought was cool.. "Oh man I'd be sick right now..." :D the look on his face was like a parent when their kids get hurt...

All I could say was, "What can I do... it happens...." :laugh:

So I've already got an appt for Monday

:upset:

That'll buff right out. No worries. :)

Seriously, that sucks, but it'll be fixed good as new before you know it.

:laugh:

Edit:

added anoth pic of the spkes leaning the other direction...

not as good of a photoshp but... :iono:

You're probably right. I'm just used to looking at my symmetrical wheels.

I love the wheels you picked out. Those are going to look amazing when they really go on your car. Have you decided to go with 22s?

:confused0068:

DAMN

Those would look good in 22s. ;)
