Default wheel ideas

I have a 2000 Z28, and I am considering maybe new wheels. I was wondering what some of my options were. I really like the Fikse FM/10's and Z06 rims and I was wanting to know what else is out there that are similar to these. I really don't want to spend more than 1100 or so. Any ideas.

You can find a deal on ZO6 rims like I did for around the price you want to pay, but you aren't going to find any Fikse's for that.

Those Z06's look great on your car. I know that the Fikse's are untouchable in that price range, but I was wondering if there was anything out there that looked alot like them. Or any other suggestions that others may have.

I really really like the Fikse's but I seriously cannot afford them... or anything that really looks like them for that matter. Just a FYI, I paid $1k for those wheels AND tires. They were two months old. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Thanks for the compliment <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

BBS makes a similar wheel to the FM 10.

I agree, but I am looking for something that is a little different and I have seen about 2 or 3 Camaro's in my immediate area that Y2K wheels right now.
