Gunmetal C5's on a white camaro??

[Wally X]

I have been searching all around and couldn't find many pix of c5 gunmetal rims on camaros. I was looking at these on ebay

and wondered what they would look like on my 99 white camaro. I was thinking of getting racing stripes in a close to gunmetal color. So what to all you think and do you have any pics. Also what tires whould fit with above rims?
thanks!

Ok found some pix of the rims on a pewter camaro, but no white. and I'm worried about clearence, will I need to upgrade shocks or coils?
thanks

Hey those kinda look like mine just a lil' darker. [img]smile.gif[/img]
No, you won't need to upgrade shocks or springs I believe the 98's you DON'T have to grind down the wheel bearing, so you should be ok like that. It should pretty damn good on a white maro'.

no other opinions?

i think it would look good with the strips. without the strips, no

someone on here had gunmetal Z06's on a white camaro, nice picture on a bridge with a cityscape in the background, and it looked amazing. C5's, i dunno, but the Z06's would look friggin awesome

i personally prefer either white rims or chrome on a white maro

ok well staring to get alittle turned off by the gunmetal, cuz I don't see me getting stripes. I definatly want c5's but am leaning towards chrome or silver. Anyone know about the quality of the wheels the guy in the above link sells. He has silver and chrome c5's and they go for around 500ish shipped, and I get a buddy who works in the sears auto place who can hook me up with tires and balancing.
thanks

cooler with the stripes, but pretty as is.

I dont know, compared to the white car the wheels seem dirty, like no one cleans the brake dust off of em. I think chromed c5s would look better than gunmetal, but thats just my opinion

check this pic out:

yeah i was gonna get gunmetal c5s but then i got my 35 ann wheels, but i think u should get some c6 rims, they have em in black and are clean.

thanks alot for the pic of the camaro over the city. Well I saw a vette with chrome c5's. They were gorgeous and spinning that hipno-tized me. So I'm definatly gonna get chrome c5's. either 18's and 17's or 18's all around. Thanks for all the input and pix. I'll put up pix when it's done.
You guys rule!

I talked to a guy and he said that putting the 17s and 18s only look good on the corvette because the corvettes bigger on one side. but for the firebird and camaro's it would look goofy. Go with just one size

I say find something deepdish. I don't know if it's just me, but deep dish rims look so damn good on F-Bodies.
