Default You pick the rim..

If you had 1500 bucks and owned a 2001 Camaro SS Black and you wanted 17x9.5 inch rims.. which would you chose?

No black rims though. Too much black.

Anyways.. I looked at Iforged Classics but OBVIOUSLY that was out of my price range.

I would love 18x9.5 up front and 18x10.5 or 11's out back but I just bought tires for my stock 17x9.5 inch 10 spokes and I dont want to have to buy more tires just yet.

So anyways.. which rims would you pick?

Thanks for looking and thank you in advance for thinking up some rims for me

Save up another $500 and get some CCW's in 18's. Then you can sell your current rims and tires to help offset the price of new tires. Just an idea.

Privat Profil's should fit the budget. I'm not sure if these are 17" or 18", I can't remember (not my car):

Boyd coddington tuned?

They look just like FM-10's

They're around 1300 with lugs for 17x9.5 and 17x11

privats make me but I dont think your goin to find anything that really stands out for that price range. I'm with just save an extra 500 and you'll have more choices other than that., look for Z06s, TTIIs, or ZR1s.

I appreciate everything guys. Thank you.

See the problem is I just sold my 69 camaro and with the little left after paying the bank off my wife wanted me to put ALL the money to the new house we are saving.

As a dumb male I am.. I need some self satisfying products for my only hot rod now which is a 2001 camaro ss. So I have little money and a whole lotta argueing to get some rims.

Thanks for the advice though.. Keep em coming.

I seen the Boyds 306's which were nice but 800 A RIM!

I almost went with the Profil's but after seeing them on a black SS you just convinced me not to get them. Thank you for saving me a ton of money

That's funny, I like the Privat's pretty well on Camaro's. To each their own though, glad the pics helped with your decision.

actually the first one is called osiris and its almost the same as the F09, except its not forged and the spokes are flat vs them a lil curved like the privats.....TO me Thats a BIG difff.! I prefer the straight up flat spoke look in those rims anyway.
