Default Req: T/A wheels on a Camaro

I have the opportunity to pick up some of the stock 16" chrome T/A wheels for pretty cheap. I can't seem to find any pictures of cars with T/A wheels on them. I want to know what it looks like. I have the stock grey 5 spokes and they're pretty beat.

Not too bad, a lot better than the salad shooters lol. However I think they're a little too small.

That's a very close minded statement. I guess we should all keep the stock wheels, since they clearly look the best. I forget, we're ZR1 and Z06 wheels designed for Camaro's and Firebirds?

Take your factory five spokes and have them polished and put a coat of clear on them to protect them. A buddy of mine did that to his wheels and I think they look good in my opinion.
