As I said in the other thread, I purchased mine through a local shop in Phoenix, called AZ Power and Sound.

If you would like their number, just pm me and I will give it anyone who wants it.

no 315's on a 9.5" rim, 285 is the largest size that is recommended. some guys have put 315's on them, but it is very unsafe and the bulge is terrible. i stuck w/ 275's all around so i could rotate them. i doubt you can find them anywhere, not sure if they are still on the seemingly infinite back order or not. i lucked up and found them even though the computer said they didnt have any at the warehouse.

ive heard not too bad. I think im gonna go with the HPR5s. I think the privats look great on the camaro, while the HPR5s, a little more softer spokes/smoother, flow better with a T/A. I think ill do silver light. Thanks guys for the pics and help. keep the pics coming (and def of new installs) so we can all see the diff!

DOES ANYONE MAKE A DAMN WHEEL WITHOUT RIVETS!!! Seriously, I am wanting to know, because I would like to buy a set, but I HATE the rivet craze all these damn wheel companies are going through.

The wheels would look SO much smoother without them.

You can't. They don't make chrome in our bolt pattern. You'll be best off taking them to get dipped. The silver lights do almost appear chrome in sunlight.

No rivets would be nice. I spoke with someone awhile ago that knows an upcoming wheel company that's workin on a privat/HPR5-like wheel in chrome only.

hyper lights are more of a silver finish. They almost look polished in the sunlight.Those ROH look nice. Probly $$$ though.

i also saw some chrome HPR5s on a 06 bmw 5 series today. They looked

edit: just did a search, ROH Drift Rs range around $220-250/wheel for 18x9s. so roughly $900 for a set. not bad, only about $150-200 more than a new set of HPs.
