I would almost even say white lips with an HO pinstripe on the wheels, white with an HO lip "might" look good. I'm not sure on that one though.

I like the orange lip idea.. check out SS shaun's car on youtube, my absolute favorite camaro of all time!

So it looks like I'm probably getting deep dish ZR1's in chrome, and if I don't like it I'll do them in plasti-dip and paint over white. That way I can just peel it off if I want to switch it up. Love that stuff

If anyone has pics of a white 30th car with different rim combo's that would kick ***... seeing a Arctic white camaro with rims and 30th car with hugger orange stripes is two totally different things so it's hard to get a feel for what will look good. I like to keep it classy but sick looking for sure.

I think my only option as far as price range is going to be OEwheels, I wish I could get some CCW's but can't afford it right now. I loved my last 2 sets of OEwheels though!

So guys I found another SMOKIN deal and I'm seriously considering it, but you have to tell me what you think! I found a full set of C6 rims and tires on craigslist for $650 OBO (thinking I could get them for more like 450). They are 18's and 19's and the ad says they are in excellent condition with no curb rash, come with spacers, and the tires are worn but have a little life left. I'm not sure if they are aftermarket replica's like OEwheels or OEM.. I'm thinking OEM since they come with spacers, and that would make them worth even more. However I don't know if there are OEM chrome C6's with rivets?

I've never had anything bigger than 17x9.5 on an fbody so I'm not sure how these would be overall - I think they would look sexy, but don't know if they would hurt performance and handling... My BMR lowering springs and Bilsteins are now on the car too.

Tell me what you think fellas, I think I'll buy them either way to make a few bucks flipping them, but I think they would look damn good on this car!

Those are definately aftermarket. I vote no black wheels but I am never a fan of black wheels. I'm always a fan of c5 dd.

Dude it's a wrap, I went to check out the 18/19 chrome w/ rivets C6 rims today and they are pretty much mint, only a few scratches on 1 spoke of each of the front wheels but they look mint! I'm trying to figure out what brand they are, the rear wheels came with spacers, without the spacers the rears would hit the inner fender / shield area but could easily be BFH'd and ran without them. They are pretty much flush with the spacers though so I'm happy as hell!

Got all 4 wheels, 18 in front 19 out back excellent condition with 285/35/19 rears and 245/40/18 fronts (need a bit bigger fronts but they look good!) tires still have a few seasons of meat in em, Goodyear Eagle F1's. All in all about a $1,500-2,000 set of wheels I got for $275. That's right. TWO SEVENTY FIVE. It was a real cute chick with a NBM V6 99 Camaro, I hit it off with her and her family and in exchange for helping her find a deal on a set of replacement 16" tires they hooked me up insanely on these wheels.

Super
Dooper
Good
Day


Pics up soon It looks amazing.

Maybe if I get sick of these, but for now they look amazing...

Not what I had in mind but I couldn't pass up that deal and they look extremely good.
