wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
What do you think of these choices for white car with red deck stripes? 17x8's on the front and 17x9.5's on the rear.

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
Having previously owned a White/Red Heritage Camaro I think i'm well qualified to answer this question...haha.
Anyway, I can't say i'm in love with any of the 3 choices, but if I absolutely HAD to pick 1, I would go with #2....IMO 1 and 3 would look ugly.
If i may make a few suggestions, I think Ronals with white or red accents would look sick, however i know they cost a lot. I also know that while i still had my white/red heritage i was thinking about 17" C6 wheels on ebay.

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
I just sold a set of white accent Ronals never mounted on my car. I'll probably regret it. I'm definitely open to suggestions. I know I'm having a hard time deciding.
----------
What would you choose?

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
hmm... agree with the two others, those rims don't look like the chevy-muscle looking type.
I honestly prefer the new Cragar Rims https://www.thirdgen.org/tech/images...ekyll&Hyde.jpg
But if you're looking for more Sharp Than muscle, these are oretty wicked:

Newer style Rims are more difficult to select on these cars.

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
wheels are a very important thing to the overall build of a car. in my opinion; all of those look horrible. i only mention this from a standpoint that a wheel will make you want to look closer at a car or make you walk away from it.
everyone has their own tastes but the above for me would make me walk away.
as far as your color combo. unless your going with a color coded white style wheel/even red. it doesn't matter if your car is pink when it comes to putting a billet/polished or chrome wheel on it.

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
yeah Id definately regret selling those ronals. honestly given your choices Id go with #2. whatever you get has got to be a 5 spoke design. I vote either Z06's or some ZR1's

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
None of the above wheels would do anything for the car. Let's face facts....wheels really do make the car, so a lot of thought needs to be put into the decision.
American Racing has some very nice rims: Rogue, Rebel, Torqlite and IROC wheels just to name a few that would look better on your car.
Just my 2c...........

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
Your never gonna get the right answer on this because it all depends on what YOU like and of course what fits your budget.
Maybe let us know what kind of price range your looking at and see what kind of suggestions you get.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not crazy about any of the wheels you posted either but if your set on them I'd go with the second ones.

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
$400 a wheel is about my limit at the moment. I'm looking at an intro wheel but I wish they came in a 9.5". I'm not sure I want to put a 10" wheel on. Especially since my car isn't going to be lowered. Not sure how it will look. I'll probably just run the 16" 90-92 z28 wheels until I find something in my budget and looks good.

Re: wheel opinions for white 92 heritage
If i had to choose any of them you listed it would be the middle one. However if it was my car and if was going to customize the wheels, i would leave stock iroc rims on it, and paint the inside of the spokes red.
