Default Fikse vote profil 5 vs 10
99 Black Camaro SS pictured in sig.
Needs to be profil series for fitment
5's or 10's. Already have a split spoke I'm tired of although the 5s are much nice than my z07 wheels.

I like the Profil5 on the Camaro out out of the two choices. I have 5S on my car just to be a little different

Profil 5s for sure. I'd hate having to clean all the damn spokes on the 10 lol.

5's

More spokes look better on T/A's.

Its a tough choice. The 5's look meaner but the 10's stand out more

Crager is that OEM SOM, that Trans-Am is beautiful!

Because you're biased, I am too. lol

BTW - FM5's/Profil5's take like 5min to clean where as FM10/Profil10 takes like 10 hours to clean. Huge PITA with the 10's.

Peace,
Craig.

I pick 5's

I had both and the reason I hated my 10's was because the space in between the spokes you can see the wheel lip behind. To me that was sloppy looking. I even contemplated on machining that part out. But was worried that it would compromise the structural strength of the wheel.
