Please don't do that

That wheel would not complement your vehicle

they look like SUV wheels, I would not even put them on an SUV and they are too "gangsta" looking imo

If you like the wheels, put them on. That's all that matters man. It's your car.

No picture here, but would like to see one with them on.

Wow tough crowd. I was curious to see if anyone else had them and what they looked like on a camaro. I don't want to stay stock. I don't want the same 5 spoke or torque thrust looking rims as everyone else and I want to stay in a lower price range until I can upgrade to bigger Chrome wheels. That said I went ahead and got them to replace the stock heritage rims I have on now.

Theres plenty of inexpensive wheels that would fit the lower price range, so did you order em or are they on your car? If so post pics

Just an fyi I searched for weeks to find something cheap that was different than the norm. These are in the same size as my stock heritage rims so I can reuse the tires. They were 599 with shipping and taxes. That includes a set of chrome locking lug nuts and an install kit that includes some type of "power wrench" for the lugs. I was pretty hard pressed to find anything under 1000 shipped when I was looking. Now I can start saving up for bigger chrome wheels in a year or so and use these as winter tires when the time comes.

IMHO they are not very good looking for this car but hey if it's what you like then go for it. Just make sure that these rims will clear those large brembo brakes. Would be a shame if you got them and they did not fit properly.

Good luck!
