I was thinking of doing this if anyone has a blacked out camaro lets see some pics!

 

Yeah I had the same thought. My camaros black and im getting my windows tinted next week. Im also thinking about getting black rims but i would like to see a blacked out camaro to see how it looks.

 

Ya if we dont get any responses I thought maybe my teal paint with black tint rims and blacked out taillights might look cool too

 

did you try google images?

 

The plan is to black out my entire car also. I happen to have two sets of original 86' IROC rims so I am going to black out one set and restore the better of the two.

Anyone thought about what type of black to go with though? I am thinking of going with a pearl of some sort with some gold dust too.

 

Yes, I did and there wasnt very much at all

 

theres a thread like this if i recall. it called it murdered out lol(sounds dumb yes i know)

 

 

Set of chrome rims 15-17 inch .

 

TT84Z5SPD has a sick one.

 

Like this? I've recently had my rear wheels widened to fit 315's, so you can imagine how much beefier my cars rear looks.

 

^^^ i want it

 

Get in line lol

 

i can wait )

 

What kind of wheels are those?

 

They are the Morxchin C5 "replica", however, the spokes are a bit wider than the C5 and these wheels were 17x9.5 all 4. I widened the rears to 11" for some 315's. I painted the polished lip, too.

 

.

 

Just outta curiosity (if you don't mind), how much does it cost to have a set of wheels widened?

 

I had 2 of my 17" x 9" widened to 11"s, had the centers/spokes & inside loop powdercoated black and IIRC, the widening was $200/each & powdercoating was $100/each. Been a few years, so it coulda changed.

Here are pics of before & after, as well as getting the car to fit them.

That is damn sexy

 

Almost blacked out!

 

I always wanted to black out my camaro, and for YEARS ive talked about powdercoating my wheels/painting them black. But allas I have not done it yet, always found some cool mod I wanted instead of painting my wheels black but one day! I swear! After I build my trans and bottom end I will do it. well or while but my 700r4 is dead right now.

Stephen - this theard is awsome! or would be even better if I could contribute. catch ya later

 

how did you paint your rims black, what did you use? looks great.

 

i love camaros like that...all the same color..maybe chrome rims...i don't like the hood blisters and the iroc on the sides of the doors...find it looks cheesy...

 

Here, I finally got a decent picture to upload.

 

 

Method.... awesome.. lovin it. What size rims? The black w polished has to have the right size rim or it does not look right. Urs is perfect!

 

I love the car, the rims are a bit too big for my taste but still a really nice car

 

what rims are those, they are aweome!!

 

Method. Where did you get such clear front turn signal housings

 

The marker lights look blue cause the only bulb I had at the time was blue.

Rims are american racing killer rims....fronts 20x 8.5 rears 20x10. Didnt want a 20 in the front but I got a hell of a deal on them and they didnt make a 19 in that rims.

 

That looks pretty mean. I will be blacking out mine when I get some time/money.

Also... hello fellow Cleveland'er! *wave*

 

To bad we live all over the place, maybe someone can Photoshop a picture of all our cars together.

 

I had a feeling. Personally I think w the right rims 20s are perfect on these cars. The black wheel is definately the key tho. I have been planning to go with 20s.... first car needs to run.. lol...

What offset did you go with? I wanted a minimum of 10 inch in the rear but was really wanting to sqeeze an 11 back there. How is your clearance in the back? Also what tire size u rolling w?

Last question... how low is it dropped. The stance with those rims is perfect.
thx

 

thats what i said when i saw it, i will be blacking out my firebird soon, and probably getting ground effects from a gta

 

The rear tire size is 275/30/20. They were a pain in the *** to fit inthat wheel well. I had 2 inch spacers on all 4 but the tires would rub the lip in the rear over bumps. I had to shave them almost a half inch and no probs. I got eibach sportlines on it. Parked next to my friends iroc with 16" rims my car only sits a lil lower then his stock. I didnt want chrome 20's on it cause I think it woulda looked too ghetto and thugged out.

Wow thanks for the shout out man!! Have we ever met?

Here are some pics with the old wheels.












And the new wheels, still un-decided if I like the flat black...

 

That on sportlines? Looks nice!

 

I wanna black out mine also!!

 

Ground control weight jacks. 8" 650lbs front 9" 200lbs rear. Fronts are all the up and rears are all the way down lol.

 

anyone else notice the bright orange ford falcon in the background?

 

cant wait to tint my windows

 

I'm sold. I gotta go get mine done, just got to get Interior & rims!

 

Jaydog your car is amazing! I like the original look.
Very nice!

 

Thank you sir,

I promised to keep it that way when I got it from an old co-worker(a GM certified Master mechanic), who had kept it up since 1996 after his daughter passed away from brain cancer, he was getting older and he told me there were days when he would come home & see it in the driveway, thinking she was home and ...

So he sold it to me knowing my word was good that I would keep it like I had remember it from when my bud had a green one just like it back in high school that we used to skip class in. It now has 230,000 miles on it & still running strong!

 

Wow, for 230k that looks amazing. And it puts mine to shame at 82. Keep up the good work and box those wheels if your getting black ones.

 

That is great you take pride in your ride! A very beautiful story, looks like it ended up in good hands. Oh iam not a Sir... I am a girl...LOL

 

LOL, sorry my bad, I don't think he'd mind me putting other rims (black 17in Z06) on the old ride, I would be keeping the stock wheels.

 

Gratuitous side-shot.
