another thing, i just bought new tires from costco they were 245 50 r16 i believe, will these fit for sure? thanks for the help guys.

EDIT: does anyone have pics of their maro's with the 16 inch chrome irocs. i am not interested in getting new tires so please dont tell me to go 17 or bigger. thanks for the help again.

Not a problem, there has been a lot of confusion on that. You'll also get more responses on the main part

Skweezn87

Price looks decent.

Yes your tires will fit these rims.

Cant say I have seen any (in my area atleast) 16" chromed IROC's .. most have been 17" Im sure the 16" will look ok..

BMAN90RS

ok cool, btw do u have any suggestions about the topic?

Skweezn87

Im not a fan of the TTII's so I say stick w/ the IROC's

BMAN90RS

ya thats the way i was leaning anyways. i just would like to see some 16" pics if anyones got em' thanks

BMAN90RS

i like them , but i love the 5 spoke 16" IROC's and 5 spoke 15" Z28/RS

i wouldnt mind finding or chroming my 15in stockers

i got those wheels on my car. mine are 18's though and were from a different person on ebay, but the quality of the american racing wheels are alot better than the other chrome irocs i think.

BMAN90RS

ya that auction was for american racing ones i believe

wite86irocz28

iTrader: (2)

they are the american racing ones. they have the same center caps as mine.

Badboy4lifeRS

you prob wnt find TTII's for cheap. there a little pricy. chrome irocs look nice. i would look for 17's but 16's will work and will still look good.

BMAN90RS

THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED TO HEAR! i want them but i was mum on getting 16's b/c everyone is gonna say shoulda got 17's, shoulda got 17's, ya know? anyways thanks for the input


btw, witeiroc, do u have pics? and are urs 16, 17...??

The stock IROC's are sixteen, and I think they're the best looking wheels on a third gen Camaro. I'm not much for chrome though, and wheels are about the only chrome part that readily goes on these cars. (And if someone mentions the chrome fender flares I will chop off your mu!!et) I'm a big fan of polished aluminum though.

wite86irocz28

iTrader: (2)

mine are 18's all around.

BMAN90RS

god damn that looks good. *slaps himself* i have to go 16, crap

wite86irocz28

iTrader: (2)

i think 16's would still look great. especially if you lowered the car. mine is lowered

mike_c

iTrader: (13)

+1 I've always prefered the look of polished aluminum over chrome.

BMAN90RS

ya but theres no polished aluminum iroc rims that i am aware of?? as for the lowering the car comment, theres no way i would be able to b/c of the speed bumps by me, i scrape as is, and the last thing i need is a whole exhaust re-do

karl's-92'-z28

iTrader: (5)

Those chrome 18's are sick, I have a set of polished IROCS I did myself, alot of work but it came out awsome. They are hareder to take care of then the chrome ones, caused they are polished. Mines are 90 IROCS

BMAN90RS

any pics u guys?? o and i checked their actual site and shipping was 60 on there, and 100 on ebay so i emailed the guy and im waiting for the response. seems stupid to me considering they r the same product, and they are shipping from the same place

ejameson3

Do you think those would look bad on my Bird

BMAN90RS

so i am about to order them, and was wondering, should i buy chrome lugs too?

TheScaryOne

iTrader: (3)

Yes. If you get chrome wheels I can't fathom them possibly looking good with anything other than chrome lugs.

*Maybe* the black caps that go on our factory lugs. Maybe. If it's a black car. Otherwise chrome lugs.

Don't forget a set of locks!

BMAN90RS

something like this?

TheScaryOne

Uhm. They don't have pictures? O.o

You could probably go down to your local Autozone and pick up a set of chrome lugs for cheaper. You're gonna wanna get ones that are closed (for looks) so you might want to see how far the lugs stick out of the nuts. And AFAIK, all of the "sets" at Autozone/Checker/etc come with locks and a set. You can also grab some chrome valve stems in the tire section.

BMAN90RS

ok thanks alot, and btw, whats that hub ring thing they have in the kit?

TheScaryOne

iTrader: (3)

You've got me there. I don't have a clue.

wite86irocz28

iTrader: (2)

my wheels came with chrome lugs.

Sickness91Z28

iTrader: (1)

I paid a little over $1300 for mine. For the price...you can't beat them. But as far as quality....they do have some wave in them....and watch out cleaning the inside of them....because the edges are extremely sharp..I've cut my hand to hell cleaning mine. They are forsale if anyone is interested

BMAN90RS

are those 18's? and if you would sell them, how much for rims and tires?

Sickness91Z28

iTrader: (1)

rear are 20's fronts are 18's, $1200, paid over $1300 them new. Probably only 100 miles on them.

tweeker

The chrome iroc's look good but the quality of the wheel is not great but I am a huge fan of the TTII's you could call me a little impartial though I think I paid 225 a wheel and got the nitto's for 100 each

jeffs91rs

stick with the iroc's

jeffs91rs

stick with the iroc's. just got some for myself from American Racing but havent put them on yet.

iTrader: (6)

VERY nice....I'd go with these.....

camaro8811

irocs are cheaply made wheels which is why i am getting rid of mine and getting tt2's. don't make the mistake i made. there is a reason why they are so cheap.

bj350hp

iTrader: (1)

you know what looks better then Chrome 18" irocs.

Painting them to look like stock Iroc wheels. ( to me this is the only way to go.)

wite86irocz28

iTrader: (2)

you must have got the cheap version of the irocs. the american racing ones are very good quality and are fantastic wheels. before i got them i saw someone with the cheap irocs and they looked bad. i was kind of scared to buy mine but when i got them and put them on they were great looking wheels. but thats just my .

camaro8811

i agree with that. american racing are the only ones to buy. everything else is the same. the 600 dollar ones or the 1200 dollar ones. it just depends on how far down the line the company selling them is. all junk...except the american racing ones. obviously because they are such a reputable company.

Skweezn87

My 17's are polished .. PITA ..but when clean.. WOW!!

For ease of keeping the wheels clean and cleaning them.. I would go chrome.

85maroz28

I have the American Racing version of the 18" irocs and I love them! The quality is great and there is no waves in the chrome!

ItalianZ32

I have the 16 inch chrome Iroc's from American Racing on my 92 and I love the way it looks. I will try to take a pic for you this weekend and post it on here.

iTrader: (8)

I LOVE these rims... I have 17's all the way around, check out my cardomain for pics... I would personally go with chrome iroc's if i was you... http://www.cardomain.com/id/BrOdBaNd

hitman0187

I have a question for the american racing fans - is that center piece replaceable by the stock iroc cap ?

hitman0187

i'll take that as a no. How about the chrome irocs ( non american racing) can i attach the factory iroc cap over the plain chrome area?
