What shoes you wearing or wishing for

Hi guys I am new to the forum, and was wondering what rims/tires you are running. Also I was curious, what would be your dream wheel, that you were wishing to put on your car but for some reason cant. Thanks in advance guys!

Well,....I'm running 20s on a SS. Polished Aluminum,....looks very bright and nice. It's set off the car because of the limo tint. But what I've seen today looks so sexy.......some guy in this forum got his tires done with Hyper Black Chrome Painted Wheels. It's looks soo good. I'm thinking of getting some of those. Looks absolutely amazing.

D2 Forged VS6 wheel, nice choice. I can get you 20s for a lot less than $5200. 22s for less too. Contact me for a quote!

I'm here to make your dream wheels come true

bossmtrs10, Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's and wive's here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

I am running the polished 20's.....but have bought a second set of rears and will be running them on all 4 corners so once I get new tires, I will be able to rotate tires to even out the wear.

The forged wheels that company's are coming out with are really nice. I think any of the forged wheels look good on the Camaro but they are just too darn expensive..

I like the Forgiato Estremo..

Wheels and stance are THE two most important visual aspects of a vehicle. More important than paint. You can make a world-class paintjob look like crap with the wrong wheel choice or wrong stance. You can make a primered car or rusty patina car look killer with the right wheels and stance.

How much is that worth to you?

The reason I ask because I am doing research to find out what this community has and maybe is looking for in the near future. Im doing this so the company I work for can put out wheels that you want! So give me ideas whether they are far off or simple

Saw a set of these on a Camaro this morning except it had the exposed bolts. I'd want these with the hidden bolts (as shown), but I could never spend this much money on wheels. Forgeline SP03
