JFYI, there are several different center caps to choose from.
Here is the Carlisle Tri Bar Spinner which are about $300 a set.
You can also get the stock caps that say American SS Racing that matches the Camaro SS lettering.
MBA makes some flat ones that stick out about 1/2". MBA caps
There are also flat caps.
There is the Oakland spinner cap.
And several other choices.
If anyone wants more info, let me know.
BTW, I would paint the rim centers black, leave the lips polished, but mount a flat center cap painted black using round, polished button head screws to hold it on and then black lugs. The flat cap really makes the lips look big, like a deeper dished rim.

I say go with number two. Since it's a black car I think the black centercap would be overkill. Black car, black spokes. Polished cap, polished lip. It looks A LOT better IMO. I was gonna put black centercaps on my ZR1's, but I think the chrome centercap breaks the black up more since my car is black as well.

Black spokes, Polished caps, lugs and rims… BY FAR!! I put AR CL200S rims on mine last year. Similar look. Polished rims, matte grey "Coke Bottle" spokes. They F'n ROCK! Looks like you got the same rubber I did (Eagle F1's ?) The CL200S comes all polished and all chrome as well. but that's too much bling for me. Paint the spokes! You'll be happy you did.

I'm guessing you want 16x8?
Check the ARE web site:

There are several similar styles, some are one piece. If you just want a rim that looks like the TTII, but for a lot less, do a search for the "bullitt" style replicas. They can often be found for under $130ea.
