Car: 1991 Camaro Engine: 2000 LS1 Transmission: 4L60E SS3600 | How about those new C6 wheels? I think they look pretty sweet... I did this quick photoshop, but it doesnt do these wheels justice. I think they will look awesome on a 3rd gen. |

Car: 1991 Camaro Z28 Engine: 5.7L TPI Transmission: 700R4 | Boyd Coddington "Shrike" wheels I searched a long time for a wheel that wasn't common on a 3rd gen but also looked sharp as well as went along with the body lines of the car. I finally decided on a set of Boyd Coddington "Shrike" wheels. I was surprised that they looked better than I imagined them. The pics I have taken just don't do them justice. They look much better in person.
Below is one of the pics I took. You can also view some more pics to see different angles at http://www.bhamfbody.com/91z.
(Sorry for the large pic.)  |

Car: 1995 Formula/2001 GTP Engine: 5.7 LT1/3.8 Supercharged | I gotta say I am very partial to the ROH ZS which is why I put them on my GTA. Best wheel for the buck is the Eagle 185 in my opinion...so I put them on my '95 FOrmula. BUt I am very jealous of some of the birds with the 96-00 WS6 wheels on their cars.
TT II's and Kandied's rims are sweet too.
Oh and to the guy who likes the Borbet Type T..I had 18" Type TD's (different center cap) on my 93 Z28 for like a week or two before I sold it. but never got a chance to take really nice pics. I think they are awesome if you get them wide enough! |

Car: 87 iroc Engine: L98 350 Transmission: 700R4 | I love my 87 iroc wheels. I think they are one of the best OEM wheel designs ever.
I would love to see some firehawks on a camaro that is still. I've always loved that wheel too. |

Car: Check The Sig | The C6 rims look ok, but I cant wait for the C6 Z06 to come out... wana see what they will look like.
Id say best style rims that can fit the most tire if teh 17x11 ZR1's, but best looking rim is probably a toss up of teh Hawks or Z06 rims. Polished 85-87 Iroc's repainted with the black stripe look awesome too.

Where can I find some? | GTA- Those are 17x9.5 ZR1 replicas from AFS wheels. I decided to go with the black powdercoat and the machined lip. Theyre available in polished and chrome too. Would you believe it if I told you I picked these up from ebay for around $400  . They also carry the Z06 wheels, check out their stuff at www.afswheels.com, then watch their online ebay store (of the same name) for a deal.
Good luck, Efrain.

Car: 1991 Camaro Z28 Engine: 350 TPI Transmission: 700R4 | Personally I'm a huge fan of the person on here with the Fikse FM5s. Not sure if he posted already, but those wheels are beautiful.
I'd really like to goto those one day instead of the Zr1s.

Car: '89 Firebird Engine: 468 BB with huffer Transmission: TH400 | I think ROH makes a nice looking wheel for an affordable price. And they don't look like what's on every other third '60s muscle car out there.
