Talking 22" Rushforth Wheels on my 2010 SS

Those of you in the pro-touring and classic musclecar scene have probably heard of Jason Rushforth. He is a well-known automotive artist/designer and has a popular line of forged wheels. www.RushforthWheels.com

Since I am a Rushforth Wheels dealer, Jason asked what could be done to get his brand in front of the 5th Gen fans. So, I suggested he build me a set of wheels to put on my car to snap photos of. Hehe.

Well, here is the result! Here are the details:

Rushforth Wheels - model "Rated X"
2-piece construction
Brushed centers with polished lip
22x8.5 fronts with 255/35-22
22x10 rears with 285/30-22
Nitto INVO tires
Pfadt lowering springs

Rushforth Example Pricing:
20x8.5 and 20x10, 2-piece, fully polished = $2700 plus shipping
22x8.5 and 22x10, 2-piece, fully polished = $3740 plus shipping
Add $300/set for brushed/clearcoat or colored powdercoat centers

The combo shown is available ASAP. Only used for the photo shoot! contact me for combo pricing.

Please stop with the 22's, lol. That's a Camaro, not a Hummer. 20's or less.

i agree. even though the camaro requires a larger wheel. the only word that describes these wheels on that car is donk.

it seems like a 20 is the perfect size for the new camaro

Jason makes a great product, just like his sick 2nd gen camaro featured in SEMA 08. After the car wins the GM design award, he takes the show car to the optima shootout and pounds on it all day! Not many have the stones, or the build quality, to do that with a show car.

Do the rims come in 17" (fitting 02 camaro ss vert)? If so, what is the weight? Thanks!

Wheels looks great, they're just too big, IMO. I think a staggered set would look better (back looks ok, but the fronts look gigantic). Looks like a high quality wheel though.

Staggered diameter wheels do not work on a Camaro. When you run a smaller front wheel, you end up with a taller sidewall height to make up the height difference. Staggered diameters only belong on cars that have different height tires front to rear, like the Corvette or Viper. They can do that and keep the same sidewall height front to rear, which looks better.

Will, 17s are available. n77, 24s are available. Send me an email for pricing.

They look like CCWs to me. 22's are to big for the camaro.
