Default Spinners

I know that not too many people like spinner rims on the camaros but I am very intrested in them. Although I'm interested I am still very causious about what I buy. I have found these two pics and like them. I was wandering if anyone knows what rims these are or where I could get more information on them. Thanks.

Okay man you do not want to get spinners on a sports car! On a Camaro? What in the world. It makes the car look ugly and they are beginning to be played out. Come on man, you can find some better rims for a cheaper price. Spinners are overated and overpriced

I say to each his own, let him take the heat or the praise for his choices. But if you do decide to have some taste someday loose the rice accents and the spinners fosho, Camaro is synonymous with Muscle Car! Not SUV or Honda.

Lemme try and put it to you so you'll understand...ummm'kay?

Yo! Boyee! those MaD TyTE SpinnAZ on Ya whip will look WhacK Dog! Ya, We all be HaTin on Ya 'cuz we gots higher CLaSs tHen To put plaYeD ouT DubS on Our RiDes.

Seriously, unless you are doing an episode of MTV's Pimp My Ride the closest an F-body should get to those atrosities of modern wheel design is if they happen to park next to an SUV that's wearing them. They look Stupid! Have some Class. You are driving one of the finest examples of a modern muscle car to ever be sold to the general public. (Except the Corvette of course) And if you ask to put Spinnaz on a Vette, you will see people, (including myself), act out violently!

Well you know what they say....."Simple minds are easily amused"

I was getting the Z06 before I realized that everybody has them these days. I am just trying to have something a little different. It doesn't have to be spinners but it does have to be something that every camaro on the road doesn't have. So if anyone has suggestions on some really nice rims that aren't on every camaro then let me know.

Dude check out fiske, iforged, hre, or forgeline and don't be caught looking like a dousche. Get some 17's or 18's and that will cost you about the same as ur DUBZ SPINNAZ cept you won't be a *** and they won't be played out bc their classy and not ERRBODY has them not to mention they shouldn't be on a muscle car. get your head right and read up around here there is lots of info here for you to learn.

Well, since the poor guy asked for opinions and not a little information, I guess I'll chime in .

I am sorry, but I do not recognize those wheels. You might want to try random searches on various larger wheel sites. There are many, and it wont take too much time to find the information there.

Since everybody's doin it---If your car belonged to me, and I had enough money to spout 4-5grand on a set of wheels, it would not be on spinners. For that amount of money you could have almost any other known set of wheels on this planet. The spinners thing is just a fad, and I wouldn't even put them on an Escalade. If you think about it, there is a reason you'd be the only one in the world to put those on an F-body (although I have seen picture of them on one and the unamious concencious was that they looked better with out the spinning mechanism). Good luck in what you choose to do, and remember its your money, your car and thus ultimatly your choice.
