It's a Camaro site. They all know what the factory car looks like, therefore the only comment necessary is about what is not factory. Polite answer is "looks good".

One of those shows on Spike (I think Two Guys Garage) were working on a new Camaro this past weekend. They put the worst looking rims I've ever seen on it. Anyone see this episode? They too were black.

Sure wouldn't want to have to parallel park that thing. The spokes look like they stick out an inch and a half from the tires which is bad enough, but with that black chrome, a tiny nick would stand out like a sore thumb!

Definitely not my cup of tea either. A friend has similar rims on his GM Duramax 4x4. Don't really care for them there either.

But that's the great thing about owning it. You can do with it what ever floats your boat.

Mine has the 400hp (actual 427)  but will never hit 36 mpg with me driving 

27 is doable though

 

 

Thanks for the input guys   I just can't get over the black rims!!  it has to be the age thing!!    Imagine buying a SD396 Beaumont with new SS Cragars, and getting your "buddy to powercoat them  BLACK for 20.00   yea!

Y'know that guy could have made it into a ficticious IROC replica. Add white letter tires, a number and his name in white on the rear flanks. Just a thought. Otherwise, black rims on that car...no!
