I agree, just an opinion.

Fredo Camaro - go where your taste leads you. Do a photoshop of your car for a better idea of which you like better. Personally, I think that the 505As look nicer on a Camaro but my tastes are largely against the grain of things here for the most part.

All in all, if I put all the votes from all the forums together and from people I have talked to in person it would be right at 50/50 which brings me back to square one ...lol

But I do appreciate everyone’s feed back and I have gained a ton of knowledge. I know now that everyone is torn between the 2 as I am
If it makes you feel better, whatever you choose will be the right choice because both wheels are sick. I am very happy that I went with 505As. The only down side is they are pretty hard to clean in between the split spokes. I would imagive the 500s are a lot easier to clean.

Well, i checked the website and it looks like for us guys that cant just drop 3grand on some wheels, we are sol cause it looks like u can only buy as a complete set! that sucks, doesent look like ill ever be getting any! Ok, now that im done crying, i am in agreement with the majority in saying the 505s are to much for a camaro and the 500s are just right!!

A buddy of mine did a photoshop for me. For those not familiar, 505a's on top SP500's on bottum

Not completely sure what size I will be getting but they will be at least 19's







I think I have no choice but to get both sets of wheels! ...lol

That PS isn't very good cuz of the angles on the wheels, but it does make me second guess about going ahead and putting 505A's on your car David, they look better than I envisioned. I think it is the body kit that helps them blend better than a normal Camaro.

When I voted, I clicked the wrong one

Generally I think 500's look better on Camaros and 505s better on TA's & GTO's but with David's bodykit, I think he would look good with the 505s. All JMO though
