I would definatly buy them if they were offered without rivits and had the Zr1 style lip. I used to hate the zr1 wheels till I saw those deep dish ones.

I think the best sizes to make would be:

17x9.0, big enough for 275s but very lightweight in about 1.5" lip for fronts and 2 3/4" lip for the rears also in 17x9.0 for sub 1.7 60' launches.

Then I could order a midwest 9" and get it narrowed 1 inch to save 5+ lbs also without clearance problems on the fender which seems very close on the zr1 style rims and no clearance problems on the wells.

In total would save 15 lbs unsprung weight! I would send the money right now

Then some 18x10.5s for people wanting big *** tires.

Item #: SET-CM04-18105-17095-56A Argent is definately the way to go! I have a stock Z06 set on my car now and I settled since I would prefer the 18s all the way around. Getting the exact proper offset for the Camaro from you guys would be perfect!



i dont know what sizes we would do or finishes. just trying to get them made first, then figure out the sizes and colors :

Argent. No rivets - agreed. Only true wheels that need the rivets to be put together (race applications) need such hardware and not fake bling...

some 18 x 11 or 12s with a 3 or 3 1/2 inch lip in the back. That way i can buy black ones, paint the lip red to match my car, and then get some 315s. Definatley would buy em. Im considering buying some wheels from yall right now I emailed through the website to get a price quote. but i would love to get a c5 zo6 deep dish.
