There are a few pictures running around. I think they look pretty good on Camaro's.

The only one I have seen is the silver one and like stated above it is bad quality. Kind of surprised no one else has tried this. I think it would look good

Thanks Daniel. I'm still on the fence about these. I like them because they are different. I think gloss black like on the silver SS would look nice but I'm not convinced.

Here's a couple of pics of mine before my Koni/BMR upgrade. These are gloss black. Hope it helps.

IMO they look pretty sweet, love the concave look, but do yourself a favor and do a google search of "forgestar reviews." There are a number of people who have had very negative experiences. I am not saying that the wheels or company is necessarily bad, but I have read some pretty bad things.

I was told it would take 6 weeks upfront, only ended up taking 5 weeks. Fit and finish has been perfect, and the price for such a light wheel is second to none in my opinion.

Good to hear that things went well for you, and the wheels do look great! Did you order them from the company directly? I was thinking maybe the vendor middle man might be what was giving people problems.
