Well I put some chrome zr1's on my Black Camaro RS. They look awesome from a distance I think. But up close the rims are not in the best of conditions. I might try to sell these and just spend the few extra hundred bucks for new ones. But these are good for now. What do you think?
Yea i will probably be tinting the windows. The car has been in a year long car project and its not ready to be driven around so I cant do that yet, but it is on my list. The only thing that kind of puts me off of it is that its illegal to have the side windows tinted in IL, but Ill probably just do it anyway.
Thanks 83 camaro....not as perfect in real life though unfortunatly
The wheels are 17" x 9.5" all around. 275 nittos all around except for one tire that had a nail in it and was replaced with a sumitumo or something like that.
The LS1 swap is sitting at a standstill right now. I was supposed to have a set of longtubes that a guy made 3 months ago but something happened with them (lost or stolen or something) so I am trying to get my money back so i can place my order for Hawks Long Tubes so i can get my y-pipe made. I also have some steering issues to work out and a couple other little things. But the car does move under its own power which is a good thing, just so loud and the steering is not what it should be so I cant really drive it anywhere.
hey man that looks great... but are those directional tires if so u need to have the right rear flipped..... could come apart on u at high speeds..... but other than that looks GREAT

Ya I know, I just put em on that way because I put the two better lookin rims on one side just for the pics, even though you cant really tell which ones are better in the pics. The car wont be seein any high speeds for a little while, but Ill be sure to change them before I really drive it.

wow man that thing is amazing, I love it. The only things I would suggest would be tint the windows, and get a set of clear sidemarkers for it. BEAUTIFUL car you have there. I love the brakes as well, those look real nice behind those wheels!

You have very good taste
I like your prediction for the LS1 1/4 time in your sig too
I'd have to say it's pretty reasonable, that's why I'm going with the same swap
Lol...yea it should be around the 4 1/2 second mark as long as i get traction. Its kinda rough with 8000 horsepower. Good luck with your interior/drivetrain swap.

Well I have a 4th gen rear end which is 2 inches wider on each side, so the back rims do not need spacers. But in front I do have 2 1/8th inch spacers and they seem to work pretty well.

Thanks a ton. Tints will be done probably later this summer. And Im ordering clear side markers as we speak. I definatly think the clear side markers would look good but I wanted to wait until I got the wheels to make sure, and Now after seeing it I think it will look a ton better. That 68 bird of yours doesnt look to bad either.
