opinions on wheels

I was wondering if anyone has used factory reproduction brand wheels on their camaro. im buying the factory reproductions ss replica wheels.
I have bought two of them and ill get the other two probably next month.


And then have them installed , did half now half later purchase because i couldn't pay them all at one time.. I got them in gloss black to match my car..


here is a picture of them..

Did you consider powder coating your wheels?

Yeah I was thinking about doing that too , but I didn’t know where to get it done and I know I couldn’t paint them on my own. I figured if something goes wrong with them and I’m not liking the black look I can always switch out to my stock ones..

Yeah those chrome wheels look really nice , glad to know the factory reproductions are good..First time I’m putting black wheels on a car. I’m getting them to totally black out my Camaro. I think the black wheels look pretty good on certain Camaros though..

Black and chrome is nice, but like said, I'm just not a full black wheel fan.

The center caps came with the wheels. I got the yellow bowties off ebay. Holding up pretty good. No fade so far, 4 years old or so.

Nice looking rims. Looking forward to seeing them on your car.

My car with the original painted Commemorative rims and the new MRR black rims. I prefer the black myself.

Just turned 4600 on the Odometer.
