I think they look good, but more towards mesh style wheels being on firebirds/trans ams due to the cars history with them.
For Camaros, I think 5 spokes look better. Best looking wheels I ever had on my Camaro were some anodized TSW Mondello 19x9.5 wheels. Looked mean.
I think most people just don't like mesh style with camaros. Not to say there aren't those that DO like them, I think it's just a minority though.
Those also look very 'straight' which from what I've seen, tends to make the wheel look to plain on mesh style wheels.
I'm sure someone will pick them up though.

I like them and the style, I just think they are kind of cheap wheels. Ive seen a few sets peeling and corroding. Maybe just cheap plating. Yours are in great shape though.

Back on topic, the wheels aren't bad, but something about them just doesn't look right on an F-body. They are also a little on the narrow side...a lot of people like the look of wider wheels, especially on the rears (10.5"-11" looking the best IMO).

I'd recommend not jumping in someone else's thread with a completely irrelevant question. But that's just me.

Agree, that's why I want the BS street lite 17x8 (f) and 17x11(r).
