    I'll admit, that as a basic rule of thumb, chrome goes with basically anything. What annoys me is when people say black rims are overplayed. Can they not see that there are 400 silver and 100 chrome rims for every set of black?

    Anyway, we'll see whether or not I put them on the car. It's 17/18 staggard which wasn't my first choice either, but I think can look nice. Depends what kind of prices I can find for tires. I just spent 750 on tires for the shooters last summer and they still have a lot of the rubber hairs on them so I'm not up to spending another 700 on tires.

          I splurged. I suppose I should have gone for something cheap knowing I would probably get rims sooner or later.

            Great find man, I think the shooters look great on your Camaro, but think these have potential to really stand out.

              i can understand the splurge...a nice set of tires vs. crumby/ugly ones on the same rims can really make or break the exterior, and the driving experience, of a car to me...my 215's look good and hold a shine, but theyre soooo skinny, and the braking/handling i must admit is almost non-existant compared to the Goodyear 245's on it when i bought it...the 255's i wanted were 440 mounted/balanced...didnt have the money

                          definitely feeling the rims, if im not mistaken they are the z06 rims, i was actually thinking of getting those for my maro a while back but instead decided on the c6 corvette rims instead

                          however, still a great find.. and even though you seem to like the all black look id say they would look perfect on a black camaro chrome, that is if you decide to keep them
