Best, hands down, are the stock 16" Iroc rims. I'm torn between the 85-87 and the 88-89 ones though.

Man I miss this car

dont mean to pull this thread from the dead..I've been mia for awhile. I haven't gotten the rims yet, really because I dont have the money which is the problem most of us have.

Anyway 6months later, for camaroguy, apparently there are removable centers (the inside diameter between the lugnuts), which can be powdercoated any color you want. I was thinking red..but have a feeling it would look bad.

Done alot of other things to the car since then though. Probably spent as much as the rims. :/ oh well lol

yea if you were talking about the center caps....I think it would be kinda hard to pull off any color other than black, unless you had some scheme to go with it....so no rims for you?
