I need HONEST opinions on these wheels.

I don't like black wheels on IOM Camaro, but when I saw these, I paused. What I love most about them is the chrome lip. Do you like these wheels and would they look good on an IOM w/o ground effects? Thanks!

looks good..you may need additional black trimmings(like the side stripes or black gills) to pull it off.

I thought you hated mesh wheels? Or am I confusing you with someone else?

I dig them. Just about any forged wheel can be ordered with black centers and a polished (or chrome) lip.

Don't like them. You can't see the wheel design clearly. If you're looking for a solid black inner circle like the old rally rims...I'd just buy those, Personally I would like to see the design or the caliper painted.

With painted calipers that stand out, so you can see the design of the spokes/mesh, I'm sure I'd like those a lot better.

Honestly? I don't find those wheels all that unique (on IOM or any other color).

I like deep lip wheels a lot but that spoke pattern is nothing special. There are many wheel manufacturers that have something that looks like that.

If you are going to spend the money on custom wheels, then get something worthy of the investment. Pick something that you won't find on everything from an Audi to a 'Vette.

Just my thoughts...but you asked for it.

I like the wheels on that car because of the other dark trim pieces on it ,but I don't think they would fit in with a normal camaro.

Not for me, I don't like black wheels, they take to much away from the look of the car, I think all Chrome looks the best.

Not doing it for me. I'm not big on black rims either.

If the centers were IOM with a black center cap that might fit the car better. The chrome rim looks great but the black center just disappears.
