Default Any UNIQUE wheels out there??

As much as I love seeing American Racing, CCW's, Fikse's, and OE wheels on 4th gen Camaros, I'm looking for something that look good but not what almost everyone has. Any suggestions? Please have pics!

I have VMR VB3's in matte black, similar to the Miro 111's.

Not what I would call rare, but not seen too often either. RPM505's - 19X8.5 Front, 19x9.5 Rear:

What offset?
If I remember correctly, Beyern Rapp 19x9.5 wheels come in a 45mm offset which should fit the rear just fine. For the front 19x9.5 they also offer a 30mm offset which should work as well. I'm not sure if those are the specs of ringmaster72's wheels, but I'm pretty sure that they are!

19x9.5 with a 45 mm offset all around with 285/30 tires all around. No mods needed, I did use the hubcentric rings, but I am not convinced they are necessary.

For the larger budget you can get most anything you want. Investigate the Monoblock wheels from a number of companies....HRE, Cor, Morr and others. Not inexpensive however and they would need to do a 4th gen fitment program for the CNC machine, but you would have something very unique. They tend to be in the high teens per wheel.



I don't believe you can get that concave look until you get up on the 20x13 size and over so that likely won't work for our FBodies. These fronts are 19x10 and likely would fit on an FBody rear as they have a bit over 7 inch backspacing but the rears wouldn't without huge flares.

Yes that's correct Bob, to fit those Forgelines I had to narrow the rear 2.5" per side.
