Default New Wheels Installed!

I snapped a few pics of the new wheels installed on my car. I think they may be a bit too flashy for my taste so I may end up going with the good ol C5 wheels. They may be for sale soon, but Ill see what happens.

I don't think they look that bad, at least they are something different, not another z06 rim.

Go with the C5's or put the stockers back on. There a nice wheel. Just don't think the belong on a Camaro.

I would either lower it or get a little taller tire. They don't look too bad.
