I dont have any pics, but I can tell you that the driver's side was run under the oil pan, like a stock y-pipe, and it ran parallel to the passenger side and they exited the passenger side. I had to do some clearancing under the passenger floor board, but not bad.

I really like that wheel? Anyone have a clearer pic of them? Or more close up? Does the wheel have a completely polished finish? Face and lip?

since someone replied to the first post with a pic of MY car (which is still the best looking black 'vert in this forum ) i won't post another pic of the car, even if it does look even better now
Although nobody will care about my opinion i still have to say what i think about the grey one:
It has the classic SUV-stance and the hood looks wrong (Am i the only one who likes the louvered iroc hood....?)
And the rims are not my favourites as well....

I dont like those ZR1 wheels, except for the SLP ones, I love it when you've got a deep offset. Those normal ZR1s just dont give you that angry race car look.

Still looks great, but I also think the gray ZR1's dont look good with metallic paint. You need polished/chrome wheels with metallic paint, IMO. The non-metallic wheels and metallic paint clash I guess... but that's just my opinion.

That said, I'd still pay a pretty penny for that car if I had it, I love it. But if it were my money to put into changing parts out, I'd get some different wheels.

And for whatever it's worth, maroon88Iroc's IROC is the best looking camaro I've ever seen. The chrome iroc rims are a little too bling, but the car is metallic/pearlescent red and it works.

This one has 1500 miles.


At thirdgen fest


Also at thirdgen fest; not my particular taste, but credit needs to be given for the detail the car has.

Wow, old post. The gunmetal grey car posted in the beginning of the thread is nice, but the way the wheels stick out past the fenders/quarters really kills the car in general. Bad choice of offset, or wrong size spacer?

i know im biased but imo mine looks the best that is why i built it like i did everything is just how i want it so really no other cars can compare to it b/c it is perfect to my standards. but there is no one you can narrow it down to one car, i think it could be narrowed down to a top five but imo the silver one at the beginning is very plain and the wheels sticking out just kill the looks anyways...
