Default Need a picture of the 97-99 style Camaro rims

I've just bought a set of 1997 Camaro Z28 5 spoke rims for my Firebird, and can't decide if I'm going to use them for my summer tires or my winter tires.

What I need is a good bright side shot of a Camaro with these rims on it, so I can copy and paste those rims onto a good side shot I have of my Firebird.

Oh ya, they are the non polished ones, so I need a shot of those ones, not the chrome ones.

So if anyone has a good straight on side shot of their car with these rims on, or even better, if you've got a close up shot of just the rim, post it here or send it to my email address at work

gattafonip@transcontinental.ca


Thanks!

Just for clarification, it's the 16" rims I'm looking for pictures of, not the SS wheels.

These rims here:



(I need a better shot than this one though, and I need them in color)

Thanks for the picture! Here are the before and after results. I think I'll use the Camaro rims for summer (which also means I can get my snow tires put on this week instead of waiting for next week which is good because they're calling for snow on Friday)

Here is how the car looks now:



And here is how it will look with Camaro rims:

Wow, that's definately better. I'm so sick of my rims though.
I just wish I could afford some nice IForged Aero's

I think they look pretty darn good for stock wheels, but 16" is just too small... IMO

The difference is that I got these four rims for only $250CDN($187US) where Firehawk rims would easily cost me 4-5 times more than this.

I decided in the end to use the Camaro rims for the winter rubber, it'll save me from having to get the summer rubber remounted in the spring, and then I'll only need to make one trip to the tire shop.
