Default Pics of New 18x9.5 Miro 112

I finally bought some new wheels after re-searching who knows how many different kinds of wheels. I really started to like the concave style wheels after seeing them on some Trans Ams and I was little worried at first when I purchased the wheels. After I got them mounted and on, I think the car turned out looking really nice with the Miro's.

I went with 18x9.5 Miro 112s (5x120mm) with 275/35s all around. Per recommendations that I saw in other posts, I also installed a hub centric ring to make up for the difference in the bolt pattern.
The car was also lowered about 1 inch front and back in order to avoid the 4x4 look.

The pictures below were taken on the Hot Rod Power Tour this past week. The 90 Camaro belongs to a friend of mine and it has a LS1/T56 swap along with a long lists of other modifications.

Those look fantastic on your Z. I like the silver, it goes well with the teal.

Thanks to everyone for the compliments! I was surprised to see how many "looks" I was getting in the car while on the tour compared to years past when no one really noticed it since it is just an old lt1 car. Makes me feel better about going out on a limb with this style of wheel.

They have them in black, but no gunmetal. I looked at black, but didn't feel it would go well with my color car unless they have some sort of polished lip.

Looks good. Silver definitely was the right choice with that color imo.

I really like the wheels. If you don't mind sharing, how much did they cost with rubber?

I like that they're a little different from a typical 4th gen aftermarket choices

Definitely a very wise choice made, Silver and blue is a winning combination!
