Any of these out there on a camaro? (preferably red) Ive seen them on the firebird, but I am still trying to decide. Thanks, Doug

 

...Buy them, they look farking awesome!

 

Also, these...not on a 91 but just for anyone wanting a look:

 

...

 

DAaaaam that's bad ***.

 

Yes it is! Now go buy a set already so they'll still be in production when I can afford car insurance again lol!:hail: :hail: :hail:

 

I still can't make up my mind between the Ronals and the ROH ZS.

Right now I'm still leaning toward the charcoal ZS wheels. I gotta do some photoshopping

 

I dunno, I couldn't decide between the Ronals and the ZS either

 

I think the Firehawks look better on Camaros than ZSs do...

 

I'd like to see those on an 85-90 T/A...
just to be safe.

Ok, these wheels are just damn good looking, now what would they look like on a black 92 z?

I am gonna try and photoshop this in a bit, if i egt ir right, i will psot it up unless someone beats me to it....

 

what is the weight of these wheels? I assume slightly heavier than stock. Doug

 

Does anyone know how much more these wheels weigh than stock z28 wheels?

 

what is all the hype about these wheels, they look nice and all but they are just basic 5 star rims. actually I would like them much better if they didn't have that screw holding on the center cap. the whole center cap is a hex nut isn't it. so why does it need a lock. just my .02 cents, I think the screw kills the rim and makes it look cheezy.

 

Those center caps need a screw in them because they are like $50 a peice! At least thats what it cost to get one with the original firehawk logo in it and everything.

And I'm almost positive that these are lighter than the stock wheels or almost the same weight. I was swapping rims on my 88 IROC and I took off some 15's which were steel, but the 17" firehawk rims weighed like half as much even though they are much bigger.

Thats the 2 different sets of rims that I was swapping. My Iroc rims are on my 67 firebird so I didn't get to compare weights between those and the firehawk rims.

 

what I meant was why not make it look cooler, rather then one big screw why not put several evenly spaced screws around it. like the ricers do with there 18's, makes it look much better and not so early 80's

 

ummmmm just a guess, but maybe because ricers do it


and our cars are from the 80's

 

yes our cars are from the 80's, an era which produced some of the ugliest stylings ever, including the cheezy screw on caps for the rims. when you buy rims its to update the look of your car, why put outdated wheels on if your trying to update your car. and not only ricers can have nice rims, just because ricers use a certain technique or style doesn't mean we can't use it to improve our cars

 

Exactly. The classic understatement. Look at any show winning modified classic car, and what do you see? A car that's been made more plain then when it was stock. All the window edges removed and smoothed. Bumpers welded right to the body and painted. Simplicity. Gaudy, "look at me" styling is a fad. Look at any tacky stripe package from the 70s and you'll see what I mean. That was all the rage once. It's the simple, clean, classy understated cars that continue to look good year after year. Some of us would rather a simple, but unique wheel style instead of the bright, tacky **** that is all the rage now.

That's definately a matter of opinion. I think the thirdgens are the best looking of any generation.

 

I still think TTII's are the way to go. No matter what you put them on.

 

So what ... if I put 18's on my camaro im gonna be a *****? Blah! I think those wheels are plain. I like deep dish wheels but I agree thats just a basic 5 star design ... nothing to get excited about. How much do they weigh per wheel? Are they 2 piece or 3 piece?

 

I just like them because they don't stray too far from the looks of the original wheels that came on this car, and they are 17"x9.5".

 

Personally I think it looks sweet, but it would look stupid as hell on my brown car

 

I like the rims and the car !
Im jealous !

 

AMEN JIM ! ...I LOVE MY THIRDGEN ! I also think they are the best looking of any gen !

 

Those are the best looking wheels by far for third gen , imo . It just make the car look so tuff . I am a big ZS fan as well , but the Ronals I think blow em away

 

I like the rims, just don't like the matching colors.

My favorites have to be Zr1 wheels, TT2s, the Ronals, and the guy on here who has the fikes. There are a few I'm leaving out I'm sure, but I like those alot.
