I went through this same issue and many sets of wheels. In the end, I liked the 18" CCW SP500's the best for NBM

I think those who shell over the coin are indeed the trend setters not the followers. Im a 22 year old college kid and I waited it out but I have some Fikse on the way. Glad I didnt go with Oewheels when all is said and done.

Nothing more to say... You wont be dissapointed in your decsion. The Fiske wheels are a piece of art work! Absoultley the best quality I have seen out of a wheel manufactor; i would be careful of who you have mount your tires. I have heard some ***** stories!!!

Just because they are expensive doesnt make them original

I went with a set of wheels no one else has used on their camaro, and didnt spend more than $500 on wheels

Not saying their original, I know Im not the first to put FM10s on a WS6 and I know I wont be the last. I just know if I went to a big F-body show in my state I would see alot more OE knock offs than Fikse. What kind of wheels do you have sir? I myself saw a few wheels that were "original" (no one on the interwebs was running them) but there was always trade offs. Small rear width, weight, rivets. There was always something that turned me off with other rims other than the higher end ones were you get what your paying for. I justified the cost by getting everything I wanted in a wheel.

I use to like TSW Indy 500 when I was younger. I thought they looked like a knockoff CCW 505a. Like I said earlier a lot of wheels have tradeoffs. A 9.5" rear wouldnt do it for me. As long as you got a good deal and like em thats all that matters. I know I wouldnt spend $3,000+ for wheels/tires on an LT1.

I think my new personal favorite for NBM Camaro's are the DD Chrome ZR1's, pretty sure you can get some just like this from OEWheels. Also, one thing I haven't really seen is white wheels on NBM. I've been having visions of DD ZR1's in white on this color, not sure how great it would look, but it's just a thought.
