Opinions on these 19's
 
just ordered a set of the in 19x9.5 with 45mm offset with chrome lip and black centers.
i know some people have these with machined lip.
the salesman said that the ones i ordered had a 3 inch lip.
just curious what everybody thinks of them.
they will be going on my 95 Z28

i like them, but i am not a fan of the rivits

Nice....a tad big for my taste....I'd do 18's.

Those are pretty badass looking, but seem to be a step down compared to what you currently have.

BAD ASS TA WS6 Mar 21, 2007 09:12 PM

I agree with Jason. The 19/20 iForged combo on the Z is bad ass. I know you've had it that way for awhile... Regardless, the new wheels are allright.

JasonWW Mar 21, 2007 09:15 PM

I've also seen your forged rims with a flat black spoke finish and they look really good as well. Have you considered having them refinished like that?

cookba Mar 21, 2007 09:32 PM

i think the 19" inchers are pushing it, i like the ones you have on their now. but we really cant tell and you wont either until you mount those bad boys

TRILOGYZ28 Mar 21, 2007 09:37 PM

The IFORGED wheels were sold awhile back and the camaro has been in storage for over a year.
I tried contacting the guy (multiple times) i sold the wheels to with no response.
I'd like to have them back from him, but i don't see that ever happening. and i don't want to go thru the long wait on having a new set made. last time i waited like 5-6 months.

i like ur rims right now...alot! but the new ones are nice, i guess we'll have to see how they look when there on there

JasonWW Mar 22, 2007 09:08 PM

If I remember right, the lip design may be a piece of stainless bonded to the aluminum which is why it can be chromed, but it can also be damaged by curbs. If so damaged, it can't be fixed or replaced, you would have to replace the rim. You might ask AZA - if that is a concern for you.

yeah, i figured if it was curbed the wheel would have to be replaced.
i am not concerned with that at all, i haven't curbed a wheel yet (knock on wood) lol !

Did you order 4 the same or staggered?

SRfastZ Mar 23, 2007 12:26 AM

BayAreaSS Mar 23, 2007 01:49 AM

I like them

ITSA6 Mar 23, 2007 07:31 AM

all 4 the same, i think i'll like the look of 3 inch chrome lips all around.

i had those ccws at one time also....lol !
my opinion, i think 19's fit these cars perfect.
i have always wanted 19's with black centers, chrome lips and chrome rivets. i think it will make an all black z28 look mean.
plus, no more polishing the whole damn wheel....that gets old real quick.
i have enough of a hard time keeping the billet 22's polished on my project blazer.
