I'm not seeing the drastic "concave" of these wheels compared to the OEMs. Just not seeing it.

Neither did I besides the rim size. Where would there be replicas like in 22?

I've not seen any. And why get a larger version of an OEM wheel? Especially with the cost of 21" and 22" tires.

Once the brakes were complete I think the extra dish you see was flaten out for off set reasons.

IMO if you were looking to replicate Bumblebee, matching the color would be higher up on the list than matching the rims. If you think rally yellow is close enough, wouldn't the stock Camaro rims be close enough also?


I never noticed the fake rotors, to me it looks really cheesy.

Oh no, I'm not trying to replicate the bumblebee camaro. I was just curious if the had the stock rims in 22s from an aftermarket company. You know, since they released zl1 replica rims in 22 as well. I love the look of my rims, just want bigger I guess. It will go along with my project in the future for sure. I thought there was a company called bfxenon that released these in 22. But I'm not real sure guys.
