Default Testing.....Testing....1,2,3 CCW Wheels on 2010 SS (56k is a no no)
UPDATE NEW PICTURES ON PAGE 2
505 preview also

Sizes shown are 20x11 and 20x11.5, 19x11 and 18x11. these are test fitments, not the finished product with various tires sizes.... 305s will fit as 315s is a little to big.

Nice to see someone upgrading the wheels on these. Not a huge fan of the factory rims. Can't wait to see more pics of the CCW's mounted up. What size is the lip on the first one?

Horrible pictures, wth. 3000 dollar wheels and pics with a camera phone at bad angles.

Other than that, the last two sets of wheels should look sick on the new camaro.

I didn't take these photos, they where sent to me. If I would have took them I would have used my DSLR camera. how often do you get to see test fitment photos from wheel companies, especially after the wheel came off the machine and is not even polished....I haven't.

Not too bad. But the sidewall on the tires just seems too tall for some reason.

once that car is lowered and the wheels are polished they would look great, some low profile tires would be better

Yes, I think that lowering it would help a lot as well. Be sure to post some pictures when you finish it all up.

Wheels look good, offsets look like they push the wheel and tire too far out of the wheel well IMHO . . .
