I will ask again, maybe I can get an answer as the car is out and there is a good market for those wheels.


Robin
Can't be anymore expensive than the original 20" polished or the 21" black ones that are offered. Besides the 21" upgrade is a $4K+ option

I seriously cannot believe...

That nobody has made LS-7 clone wheels yet. It has been the most desired wheel on the Camaro.

Usually if there is a demand, someone will bring it to market.... I just don't get it.

It takes time to make cast wheels. Most of the time they come from China...and have to be ordered in quantity.

3 Piece wheels can be done one offs.

I've heard that one piece wheels are harder to make and cost more....that might be why the long delay in seeing others. Just what I think.

Edit:.....and what he^ said. lol

Why spend money and look almost like stock.?? I will never get that. They look good with the cut ins and I love the dove tail.

Personally, if I were to mod something (which I tend to do a lot) I make sure it is different than stock.

Well if you like (and I do too) the LS-7 wheels and no one makes them what do you think about these? They're Neeper N-5 wheels in chrome.
