they're alright, do you have a set of racing wheels to trade out when you drag?

What size wheels and tires?

I'm not a big fan of that look. Why twenty inches?

There's too much of a gap between the wheel and fender IMO

Wheels are okay looking, but I do think the Z06's will look better and that's not just because they're GM or "muscle car certified", because i'm not like that.

Just those 20's look ... awkward.
How's your turning now? Do your tires rub?

I want to 18's on my 99, but I'm afraid of all the problems with such a big tire.

If you've got nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all...


On the other hand, pewter is a kick *** color on a WS6

surely those were more expensive than Z06's. i am not a fan of the blinged out F-bods, nice car though. just sell those for some 18" Z06's and some springs and you'll be set.

Why would you put "20's" on a WS-6 ? Just wondering what you were thinking it would look a lot better if you lowered it and put some Z06 rims on it. It looks like you are trying to "rice out" a fine example of American muscle if you want to put 20's on a car buy a F#$*king honda just my opinion.

You will have no problems at all with 18in z06's all the way around with 275/35 tires. I'm lowered with the pro-kit and my tires have never rubbed period.

I am sorry but , 20"rims and bigger are for SUVs and Trucks. I think it would look sweet with 18" ZO6s forsure though

Dont listen to these guys. There's nothing wrong with 20's on a f-body. I've seen worse things (camaro with 18" gold daytons that stick out from under the body). I'm putting 19" 3piece wheels on my ss. But stock wheel well gap is a no-no with big wheels. But the west coast is showing some love. If you want to see a bad *** camaro with 20's check out sprewell racings heritage camaro.
