I think we all need to start putting in pictures of our vehicles. We're getting a lot of posts and responses, but not many pics. Start sending them in guys.

That is the perfect amount of drop on a vehicle!!! Wheel lip needs to just kiss the top of the tires

Good job!

I plan on doing the same when I get my car but haven't decided if I want to go 22's all the way around or 22's on the rear and 20's up front???

We tried a set of 21's all the way around and it looked sick. Just the right amount of wheel and tire in my opinion. But the $4000 price tag made me think about the purchase. Also the offset was not right and would rub quite a bit if put on. I need to find someone who has the right offset on wheels that can fit a wider tire on the back without any rub.

Car looks great, I really like the chrome wheels. Where is the chroming guy located? Also, be careful with the front spoiler, it looks like it's pretty close to the ground. One of those parking lot concrete wheel stops will get you for sure!

Actually, i still have a lot of clearance in the front. My driveway is kinda steep and still doesnt ground out in the front. If you want chrome wheels, talk to Shawn Smith at Flips Tire Center in Van Nuys, CA.

That is one of the nicest camaros i've seen. I've read everyone's post on it and some don't like the lowered look, but i have to say that yur car looks good low. I think they make the camaros too hi and there is too much space in the fender well. I would like to see yur car in person becuz that is just sick. Good look on the car man.

do the mufflers hit speedbumps that low.

Soon as Hylton gets 50 people signed up they will go into production for those wheels. I just thought it was perfect for your setup maybe you could chrome them too, but this polished version looks to be better than GMs

I think 45 or so have signed up so far... with no obligation until we see them on the car. That Thread has all the info.

Looks VERY nice

AZCamaroFan · 08-16-2009, 07:04 PM

Looks cool, but the camera was a little close. Could get a better idea from a little further away.

chrisgalles · 08-16-2009, 07:13 PM

Looks nice man! I plan on dropping mine with the same kit. Looks so much better!

bwindham · 08-16-2009, 07:21 PM

Damn nice looking car!!!

Boba Vette · 08-16-2009, 07:25 PM

Love it! I don't understand people that don't understand lowering cars. As long as you've got clearance and it doesn't rub, lowering the center and getting snug & sleek is the way to go!

Looks very BMW335-ish. Good job putting a modern stance on a modern car!
