THOUGHTS..

I have this set of staggered wheels sitting in my spare parts room that I had on the Camaro for about 4 months a year or so ago. 20x9 front and 20x10.5 rear and was thinking about putting tires on them and running them again. I took them off because 1 day I was at a car show and seems like EVERY car had black wheels on it, so I took them off and put the Ferrada's I had on there, now the M228's are on and the Ferrada's also with tires are sitting. I do not have any pics of the black wheels on the car because they were not on there very long. The thing I really like about them is the "Maroon" edging on the spokes and the deep 5 spoke concave design. So I asking you guys. Thanks..

I liked your car with the Ferradas the best! That concavity!

Agree! The spare set you shared the link too might be good for show, but the Ferradas look best overall IMHO. Either of these would look better than the Z28 reps.

I like all three sets of wheels you have. All nice designs. I do like the black 5 spokes but personally I don't care for the wheels having trim that matches the car color. Too matchy match for me but we all have different tastes. The ferradas are my favorite of the 3 since I like 5 spoke wheels.

I'd like to get a second set of wheels but going to wait until I get tired of the black Z28 reps.

Thanks guys for being honest. I do really like the Ferrada's the best of the 3 sets I have, the only thing that bothers me about them is the fact that the 11.5 rears set outside the fenders about 3/4th of an inch. But a lot of folks at the shows and on the street really dig them. Might have to put them back on, they still have brand new tires on them. 335/30/20'son the rear. Looks bad as hell from the rear though!!

Even though I chose black M228’s for my ride (silver car with dark stripe), I really like your car with polished wheels. They just pop. All 3 sets are nice. And it’s been a while, but I just saw the pic on another post of your car when it had the Ferrada’s installed.....so, without even seeing the AC02’s on the car, if I had to put them in order of looks, I’d say Ferrada’s 1st (ultra-clean design that not many have), then the M228’s, then AC02’s. I don’t have a favorite color wheel like some do, I think the car colors decides which wheel will look best. When I chose my black M228’s, I was on the computer overlaying different colors and types of wheels on a pic of my car. I liked the contrast of the black against the silver better than matching or close to matching. My honest opinion is, you have always had one of the nicest looking Camaros anywhere, so I was hesitant to even give my 2 cents, I just enjoy seeing what you will do to your car next. Surprise us haha

335 on the rears? Wow that's meat. Is that y they stick out or is it the offset on the 11.5 that makes them sit further out? I also prefer the ferradas on ur car. Looks sick

Thank you sir for your honest and cool opinion, I really appreciate it and the awesome compliments as well. Thanks. Leaning towards putting the Ferrada's back on as I took love the nice clean and aggressive look they have, and NO BODY else has them.

Yes sir, 335's out back. And the reason they stick out is due to the aggressive offset they have because they are so deep concaved. Thanks for your opinion too, much appreciated..

I like the z28 reps best on your car. I go back and forth daily about whether I'd want black or polished rims on mine. Black is definitely in right now, but there's just something about that polished/chrome that just looks awesome.

I really like the M228's. I haven't seen any others polished. But maybe I'm a little biased. lol. Do you have any pictures of the ferrada's? I don't remember what they look like.
