        [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] I never liked the "flower-power" wheels and I always thought the stock camaro wheels (as pictured) looked better on the Birds' than the 'Maros! Good move! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

            What's wrong with Eagle 007's. They compliment our cars very well.

            By the way, I think your car looks really nice.. How much did the Trans Am front run ya?

              well it's definetly an improvement over the stock rims from your car... but I personally don't like those rims from the 2000+ camaros, so i am a lil' biased on my opinion... i personally wouldn't put firebird rims on my camaro... but i do agree that it is an improvement over the stock rims (maybe rims of a ws6 would have been cool), but anyways...

                Whats up with people and the 077s. Very few people have them. About the amount of people that buy vette rims for their fbodys have 077s. They are very nice looking and inexpensive wheels. Everybody and their brother buy catco cats and thats all they know but people don't complain about that (well maybee just me because I like carsound better) But everyone's cool about that. Your rims look nice dude, but i don't understand what everyone's problem is with 077s. 17s or 18s look mean in them and I have yet in my area to see anyone with the 077s even on their car.

                    Well it just must be in my area, two people on JUST MY STREET have those rims, and one is a friggen mustang.

                    I know my rims aren't the best rims out there, and some people probably dont like my rims, but at least they are unique. People just buy those rims cause they are the cheapest aftermarket wheels money can buy.

                    Someone said in another post that the finish on the polished ones doesn't last long.

                    I am not trying to be ignorant, but there is just something about those wheels that pisses me off.

                      hey man sorry, but with that TA front nose you need the high rise TA hatch too. Your looks like it is peiced together. How much did you pay for the rims? They definitely look better the twist v6 and TA rims in those years looked like crap. I was thinking for the money you may could have gone TA rims. Infact i am selling my 5-spoke chrome 16's if you want them holla at me. Im not trying to talk smack man i just want your car to look the best it can. Hit me back.

                            Yea, I guess thats just your opinion, i'm not trying to be ignorant or try to start a fight or anything. They might be on the cheaper side, but still a good deal for anyone like me who needed rims (one of mine was bent and I couldn't find a replacement) and didn't have 2k to drop on some better wheels. I admit I don't like the 16inch ones. I'm still happy with them though, I get compliments on the wheels all the time.
