Chrome gives it that 60's and 70's look. Got to go with chrome.

They both look good on the CGM. My vote is the chrome though - it pulls out the silver on the hood striping, but I'd probably stay with 20's just for $$$ savings and you could use your exisiting tires. Need to lower though, just my two cents.

Who makes these wheels?? Good Luck. I hope to be able to afford me some "new shoes" for my baby by spring...

Ya, but nothing finer than seeing a sleek, clean Camaro rollin with sparking wheels. They look sweet.

And won't ceramic pads help with a lot of the break dust? I'm a freak anyway, I wash/polish my car a couple times a week.

YA, Ceramic pads will help.. theres also an ols trick. If the wheels have a smooth surface (clear coat or chrome) you can wax them several times with a good quality wax and that help will prevent lots of the dust from sticking...
