I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY reccomend TrueForged. I actually have the very first set they made for F-bodies and live just outside of Kansas City so as soon as I get them mounted you are more than welcome to check them out.
Steve at TF is also a GREAT guy to deal with. Due to business he is sometimes a little slower to get back with you via email but always does, no questions asked. Send them an email, you will be really surprised at the price of the wheels. They are on par with iForged in quality but not grossly overpriced..

i'm pretty sure the thread you posted on mofbody was what turned me on to them
anyway, i traded the TT2's off yesterday for the Z06 wheels. they're in good shape, but need polished BADLY. i'll see if i can post up some pics before & after...

^ car looks good. i've seen several SOM SS's with factory or factory-style wheels, but i haven't seen any with really "nice" wheels other than 1 SOM Dick Harrell car....and it's too badass to really make a good assumption of what my car would loook like

I like that im the only camaro in my area that has the ACE Slicks and since your out of state why not. There Ace slicks and can be had in 18X 9.5 and 18X11 in Chrome and hyperblack like mine. I vote chrome but heres a PhotoChop with hyper black
Didnt buy them from these guys but found them online. http://www.wheelsdirectonline.com/ACE/slick.html

ok guys, i traded off my TT2's for some 17x9.5/18x10.5 polished aluminum C5 Z06's. they're in great shape, but need cleaned up, badly. i also got a set of WS6 wheels (01-02 style i think) with them, 3 are perfect 1 has a chunk taken out of the lip but the tire somehow still holds air and the bead is still sealed .
i'm going to have the Z06's professionally, uh...restored i guess you'd say...then i'm going to try to sell all the wheels...what do you think they're worth?

Z06's $800 with decent tyres
WS6's $350???? hard to tell with damage.
I vote Rota Torque's Hyper Silver since you are not wanting black. 18X9.5 all the way around, Google image search. I was going to do them black n red but ran short of funding and did ZR1's instead
