Default Anyone running 35th anniversary wheels on their car?

I've been wanting a nice set of SS wheels for my Z28 for a long time. I found a set of 35th anniversary replica wheels on Ebay for $500. This is the set that comes on the red '02 Camaro SS, I'm not sure how they would look on a white Z28 model.

Anyone have experience with these replica wheels? Anyone have pictures of their car on 35 anni wheels?

No replicas on mine (real deal) but you can get an idea from the pics in my gallery how they would look on your car.

If yours is the white SS, those are not the 35th anniversary edition wheels. The 35th wheels have the black inserts. They look like these:

Are your wheels the replica wheels? Did you get them from this same seller?

No mines are original wheels off a LE 35th. The ones on the link do look very similar just wondering were u gonna find the matching center caps. Id honesy wait and pay 2-300 bucks more and get the oem

Oem here, the eBay ones I don't think come with center caps which are special to just those wheels.

God damn that looks sweet. The hell with the standard 10 spoke SS wheels, I want those now. It's settled.

I can't find anyone selling oem 35th anniversary wheels, I might have to settle for those Ebay wheels. Do you know if anyone sells the center caps as replicas perhaps? or maybe I can order the center caps directly from GM?

Also, are those wheels the exact same size as the standard 10 spoke SS wheels?

I can't tell if I like your car's total package, the flames, hood scoop, and wheels. Or if the wheels on a plain jane white Camaro like mine would really spice it up. Yours does look sweet though!

sorry the Pics are bad. I bolted them on in the garage one day while waiting on parts to do the clutch so I couldn't get any outside pics.



here is some of my z28 with them on. it's the car I bought them for.

Damn man! Those wheels actually look bad *** on your car! Where did you get the black center caps at?

Is your car lowered? It looks like it is. Post more pictures of your car if you can! I'm digging that look, and want to get a better idea of how they look all the way around.

Caps are stock 10 spoke caps, painted black with caliper paint. I believe they are the same cap as corvette wheels.

Dont have any pics from this year but Ill post what I do have.

Car is lowered on the LT1 Pro Kit. Going to heater hose the rear, its about half an inch too low for my liking.

Beautiful car! You said yours are clones, did you purchase them from that Ebay seller I posted a few posts up?

Painted black center caps is a pretty good idea.

Check out this thread, it goes over everything that I did.

They are stock 10 spokes that I powder coated.
