Default Camaro w/ C5 setup 17/18 and lowered

I've found a few threads where pictures were shown of this setup, but the pictures have been moved and the links no longer work..

I'm just looking for a profile picture of a Camaro (any color) with:

17" y2k's up front
18" y2k's in the rear

Lowered with a Pro-kit or kit with about a 1.5" drop.

Thanks

Are we talking about the same rims? The 5 - thin spoke Corvette rims? I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion.

They sure do. Here is my old car with those garbage wheels...
A little lower than stock, but not quite a pro-kit





Before the Berger panel and SS spoiler

Alright let me clarify... the rims that are going on are not painted. They are the highly polished OEM Corvette y2k's...

I wasn't asking whether or not you thought they looked like ***..

Thanks for the pics above..

I found a pic, but the car isn't lowered..

Are you guys still going to tell me that these rims look like GARBAGE ON A CAMARO?

I know.. because mine will look the exact same way.. The reason I want to see a pro-kit is so that I can see how much it'll lower it. My Camaro sits high. I may need to go with Sportlines..

I like Y2k's on our cars. They dont look all that bad. But, I dont like the 17/18 idea. On some cars, like Vettes you can get away with a smaller wheel in front without anyone noticing, but on F-bodies it doens't look that good, IMO.
