Thought about getting new rims but I like the stock smoothies

I had thought about getting rims for my 13 ls white summit Camaro but after careful consideration! I kinda like the stock smoothies that came with it! After I put some lip gloss on her tires she’s good 2 go!!

If they made those rims in 20x11, I would be tempted to put them on my car. I always liked the look of those rims, especially on a white car.

If you want to personalize the look, you can always de-badge it and eliminate the bowtie on the grill. That will clean it up quite a bit.

Looks good to me, especially with the contrast between the rim and center portion. It amazes me how sometimes people will spend big bucks on aftermarket wheels which look worse (IMO of course) than stock.

If cost is an issue, people are always selling stock SS wheels pretty cheap.

Did the rear bumper take a hit? It makes a weird curve behind the back tire in the pic.

I would really consider those wheels for my car if they were 10" wide. I've seen a few lowered V6 Camaros with those stock steelie wheels and it looks really good IMO. The lowered ride height really compliments those wheels.

If you like the smoothies then keep them. I think they look good and accent the color of the car.

Yes, I always liked the rims that came stock. They look good on your ride. I ended up going with ZL1 replica rims on mine. I always like the way stock wheels look.
