LS1members! I need your opinion. Thanks (Pics inside)
I'm saving up for a new set of rims & tires. The setup I'm running right now are old school ZO6's in 18 x 9.5 all the way around with 275/40/18 tires on all four. I guess I'm tired of seeing these on every camaro I see. This is how my car looks right now.
Front:
Side:
Rear:
I'm thinking of going with 19's with 19x8.5 in the front and with 19x9.5 in the rear with 255/30/19 (front) & 295/30/19 (rear). These rims come in either silver or black with a 4 inch polished lip in the rear. I wish I had the money to buy CCW or Iforge rims, but I don't have $2,500 for rims without tires.
I saw these on Ebay and the price is right. I know tires are going to be another $600-$900 depending on the brand I choose. Let me know what you think of these rims. Thanks everyone for taking the time to read this and for any ideas you can give me on some 5 spoke deep dish rims. Almost forgot, I will paint over the BMW center caps.

thoose are good looking, and the offsets will work fine. i think if you like them go for it. Try to get some diff center caps though 9bills for 19s arent bad. Not alot of people are running 19s so you deff will achieve what your looking to do.

I like those rims, and I think those offsets should work. Im sure a director will chime in soon for a confirmation *hint* *hint*. I would go with the black FTW!!! They would look the best on your car IMO!! Definitely paint over, or find some new caps to put on before installing on the car. Keep us updated on whether you get em or not and DEFINITELY post pics once you install them.

Nice wheels. If you get them and paint the center cap, try to paint the "rivets" around the wheels too. I think they would look a lot better all black with the polished rim.

I want to thank everyone on the nice comments on my car. I'm going to drop it soon with DSM springs I have in my garage. I was thinking of going with 10.5 ZO6's in the back, but then again, I would still have ZO6's.
I guess I never thought of the hard work to keep a black car clean?
