Yeah, right after the Y in the road to Upland / Claremont. There was a lot of traffic so I didn't want to go up too high

No. When it's changed to say Camaro I don't think it looks right. My cars faster than a stock vette, so that's how I justify it

yes in which i read right after posting...but oh well IMO his car is PERFECT with the exception of it needing lowered BAD to get rid of that awful lookin gap between his tire and fender...everyone told me to lower mine when i posted pics, well the next thing i did was LOWERED IT and i have no regrets...secondly the post u are talkin about actually states that if the "poster" is just posting to "Show off" his hard work and doesn't want anyone telling him what he should do next/asking what everyone thinks, that then tellin him he needs rims/lower it/berger panel and so on is then the wrong thing to do...moving on to my next point, if i am not mistaken the original poster of this thread does state in his first post ""Let me know what you think.""

i let him know he needs to lower it

Thank you, thank you. I did ask for an opinion, good or bad. I would still love to do a lot of things with my Camaro right now, like suspension. But first thing is get some mufflers so I don't have to be on the look out for cops w/ my open headers. And then a dyno tune.

Car looks great man.

Your wheels, especially the rear ones, confused me. Those wheels don't seem to have the fat lip that other 11's have that don't have the lug nut part recessed. My lip on the rears match the lip on the front wheels, but the whole lug nut portion of the wheel is recessed about an inch. Mine are 50mm offset, so since your wheels don't have either the recess nor the fat lip, I am guessing you must be running true ZR1 wheels with a 36mm offset?

I honestly don't know what the offset is. They were on the car when I bought it. But I know for sure the front rims are OE ZR1 because they have GM stamped on them. Also the rear rims lug nuts ARE recessed about an inch... Steve.
