I just can't keep up with three Camaros and the wifes Envoy. I'm asking $3000. I orginally bought it as a project car but then I found the IROC and the wife bought it for me as a surprise gift. I still drive it back and forth to work.

Yep, that's the same wheel. I've been considering taking the pinstripe off. It was already on it when I got it. The only thing about taking it off would be that the paint under the pinstripe will be a brighter white.

I guess I'm the only one around here who's not a fan of those rims, but nice IROC you got there.

Yeah, I see the resemblance.

Anyways Tim, if I had another grand layin around I'd probably sell my Merk and buy your RS. Would make me a nice daily driver.

Actually I feel the same way you do. I mean they are OK, but I wouldn't buy them if I had a choice. They just happened to come on the car I bought ... so I'll keep em. I've decided to put them on my 90 RS for track use. I'm going to powdercoat them too.

Nice IROC!!

Horrible Horrible rims. Those really make your car look bad.

You better send them to me so I can properly "dispose" of them.


No man, they look great.

I like the rims a lot. I agree though that the car needs to be lowered next.

That does look much better. Thanks 85maroZ28. When I first got it I notice that it does sit considerably higher than either of my RS'. I would guess it's about 1-1.5" taller. That gives something to think about.
