Here's a link to the page for those wheels on their website, Boyd Coddington Signature Series Hotrod wheels.

In the Gotcha Series, there are also similar-looking 5-spoke designs such the Original, Rallye, Rallye2, Savage, and Vector designs.

I hope you are prepared to spend the big bucks, as Boyds are not cheap.

Wrong, i am still checking this website once a month, because i still like thirdgen camaros. In my opinion, when it comes to looks, my ex-car is still the convertible to beat.

Just for the hell of it...

Yeah, your convertible was the nicest around - easy. I have yet to see another even close to that nice. Loved it. If I'm thinking of the same car...

I saved some pictures a while back - they saved as 'hinten' and they look identical to that car. Is it the same car? To be even more specific, I think it was a Euro car...


Edit - Just Checked because I love this car so much...
Okay, not saved as hinten (thats another car) - saves as 'pil#'

And yeah, it is / was graboids car.

I can't believe that you sold that car...what were you thinking?

here is a link to see some more pics of that black beauty

Graboid, you got a nice car but I'm sorry I think Fatal88 has you beat as far as verts go. He has so much work into his vert its amazing. He went far beyond rims and drop.

They were 8x18 and 10 x 18 wrapped in 225/45 and 275/40.
I thought someone will come up with fatal 88's ride.I know he put a sick amount of $$ and work in his car. But in my eyes (Get this, folks, in MY eyes) it's a classic example of an inappropriate painted and overdone car, with not-too-good looking rims and worst of all, still having that notorious SUV-stance.
Anyway, thirdgens are history.

There is no best...only opinions

Both fatal's and graboid's cars both look amazing...I understand the amount of work vs overall look as in sometimes simple can look the best...like graboids car but then comes the amount of work out into a car against that...so ya its all an opinion on whats looks better in the end...lets just appreciate both of them.
