found good source for OEM rims CHEAP!!!
recently finished a complete paintjob on my camaro at the body shop i work at, and decided i needed new rims to finish it off. one of our body parts suppliers is a company called "keystone" they specialize in fenders, hoods, bumpers, lights, and factory OEM rims. they take factory rims and removed all nicks and curb rash, completely strip the OEM finish, repaint the parts of the rims that have paint and powdercoat them with a clear powdercoat instead of a clearcoat. lifetime guarantee, if they peel, scractch, chip, or just look dull, they DO infact refinish the rims completely free with a next day turn-around so long as you let them mount and balance your tires. i got the 91-92 camaro rims at 100 bucks a piece at the body shop discount, list was 132.00 each. for a lifetime warranty, for rims that look just as good as new and are actually more durable, i dont think its a bad deal at all, i'm very happy with mine. they're country-wide and should be easily found somewhat locally.

Keystone has been around for YEARS, and a reputable company. Nice to hear somebody is caring for our 3rd gens wheels, and refinishing them the way they should be handled.

I deal with Keystone once and awhile for parts at my job. I guess I will have to call and see if I can get them with the accents painted black like some 91-92 z28 wheels.

Re: found good source for OEM rims CHEAP!!!
As far as I know, ekeystone.com is the website. But that keystone is an automotive parts warehouse, they supply the high performance or special order parts to places like Canadian tire (like autozone I guess).
I think it's one and the same as driverfx.com
But i'm not sure they're the same place that does wheel refinishing. Anybody?
