It's disappointing and a major consideration about these rims that you're basically forced into running 18 or 19" wheels. That was the only drawback for me...concerns about fitment and the decision to deal with such an obscure non-stock tire size. As far as looks these are clearly the hottest thing out there for the LS1 F-body right now. The C5 Z06's and TT2's look great, but everybody has them. These are also destined to be a classic design but are a little fresher a look, IMHO. Trending Topics

All the ones posted and mentioned above I assume are replicas, in order to use a size and offset that will fit our cars with little or no modifications.

Some people said they'd look bad and I wasn't sure if the lines would work with a Camaro. I was sitting on the fence on whether to order for several weeks. This is the picture that removed all my doubts. My set arrived yesterday and is in the garage waiting for my calipers to dry.
