The deep lugs are more "OEM" looking, the lips are the same as the 17x9's. The non deep lugs have a little larger lip. IMO these look to fake. The issue is the Camaros need the 50mm offset from what I have read. I'm just having a hard time finding a chrome 50mm with the deep lugs....

u will have to buy them in either silver or black most likely. and then have them chromed. thats what i did because i didnt like the ones with the lip. i searched for 8 months before i finally gave in. its possible to find some used afs ones but make sure they are the old style as the new ones look nothing like the oem rims.

Tommy, that is pure sex man.... awesome!

Do you have any recent side shots of your car? It looks like you just took those pictures after a good washing...

I ordered my set today... I hope to have them in hand by Friday so that I can make it to discount tire Saturday morning to have my new shoes installed.... we're planning to go to the track on Sunday so that I can break my 10 bolt. Yay!

You're kidding me right?!?

Mother ******.

Great... I guess I'll call the vendor I ordered mine from and ask them for a cut sheet on the wheels... picture... something to make sure I'm getting the same looking wheel as my stock front...

3-i did trim the bumpstops so i could still put my car on the lift (which its almost always on anyways) without having the rims hang up etc.

Sorry bro but I dont think I have any close up pics. Here's a few more for ya but these pics aren't the best. I bought these rims from another member here about 4 years ago for $800 plus shipping. I'm actually putting these up for sale now for $600 cause I've decided to sell the car but I'm still gonna put another nice set of wheels on it b4 I sell it.

Thanks for the info and pics man.

To me, these look like they have a deeper lip than ls2 bait's wheel... anyone else think so?

No problem bro. The wide lip is what attracted me to the rims when I purchased them from the other member. I had already had a set of silver ZR1's that I had purchased from AFS with the deep lugs in the center but the lip on the 11's were the same as the lip on the 9.5's. I believe the lips on these are 2'' but I'll measure the front and rear when get home today and get back to ya.

They do, but the spoke design is NOT the same as the OEM ones.

The vendor I bought from says that the wheel they sell has deep lugs and NOT a deeper lip... so, I'm hoping that I found the correct wheel first time around...
