How come nobody stepped up to get a custom set of BOYDS Billet Wheels yet? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Honestly I think these are some of the nicest ones and would look killer on the 2010 Camaro.

I spoke to them and they did say they made quite a number of sets for he 2010 Camaro but no photos. I think whomever has these needs to step up and post some photos for us to see.

Being the Camaro has such a high offset and brake caliper issue I wonder how these BOYDS will actually look versus rendering and website photos.

Attached is a rendering taken from BOYDS website.
www.billetwheel.com

So many styles I personally like it would be a tough choice.

The car rendering is hideous but the wheels on it I like but they are FAKE. You cant get that profile and lip on the Camaro unless you shorten the rear end.

They have some styles on their site that look like the Foose and Torq Thrust styles. I like them but here is the kicker.

Spoke to some wheel guys today on the West Coast and rumor is Boyds isnt operating to capacity anymore making rims. I knew something was odd when I had an impossible time calling and got vague answers to every questions I asked. I guess it doesnt cost much to keep a website live these days.
