what do you think about my wheels?

the reason i think this is in the history section is because id like to know what people htink about these wheels compared to the rest of the camaro wheels? i honestly dont really like these wheels at all. i would LOVE to get a set of 91-92 wheels but have no money. so if i were to sell these i wouldnt have any wheels till i bought some new ones lol.

so first question. where do you put these wheels compared to the other camaro wheels throughout the years? and which Camaro wheels are your favorite?

2nd question. how much do people usually pay for some wheels like this? there is minor curb rash on 2 of the 4 wheels and one wheels has a pretty decent gash around the bead, but they all hold air very well.

and by camaro wheels i mean CAMARO wheels, not corvette wheels lol. i guess you could add trans am and firebirds to this as well just so i dont get any haters

heres a picture from 2 days ago. these wheels are really dirty, if they were cleaned up (4 hours each wheel) they would clean up nicely. i spent 1 hour just cleaning the front wheel in that picture. that was about 2 weeks ago. so they do clean up nicely.

Re: what do you think about my wheels?

I have an '85 z28, so I have similar wheels, and I really don't like them to much, and they aren't worth very much either, especially in that kind of condition.
They also seem pretty heavy. At least they were way heavier than an aftermarket set of aluminum wheels I used to have.
My favorite Camaro wheels are the earlier style IROC wheels.
I think you'd be lucky to get $250 for wheels and tires, assuming the tires are in decent condition.

Re: what do you think about my wheels?

tires got 60% on them more or less. i was thinkin maybe 125 for all 4 wheels. tires would more than likely stay since id have to buy new tires if i sold them as well. when i sell the wheels and buy new ones i planned on transfering the tires over to the new wheels. tires are expensive lol

and yea i also like the older iroc wheels. wish i could afford them haha
