Bought the Camaro a few months ago and decided to go with these wheels. 17X8 black street lites and 17X9.5 in the back with 275" rear tires. Really set the car off.

I'm not a fan of irocs without iroc wheels, but those look like they belong on your car...quite nice. I really like the simplicity of the wheel, not too busy or so oversized it takes away from the car itself. How much is your car dropped, the stance looks great.

Spacers?

indebt 09-23-2013 10:26 AM

Re: 86 blue IROC 17" Billet Specialities street lites with pics
 
Thanks!! No spacers and tires/wheels are about 42 lbs which was same weight as my 16" wheel/tire combo. Most of the weight is tires as wheels were I'm guessing maybe 15 lbs. I've heated the springs just temporary until I get my 2" Intrax springs on.

About $1375 for wheels and shank lug nuts. Maybe a little less. Bought from Summit so free shipping.

Those look really good. I wonder If they offer them in 18" or 19" diameters...

SICK!!
i was just thinking bout using these in the rea and c5 wagon wheeld in front.
do u think u can fit anything over 275 in rear? i really need a 315. perhaps a 1in spacer may help. how much room between wheel and body?
:goodidea:

Thanks everyone. Sorry about the rear shot. I'll do that this week if it quits raining. I think 315 would clear as long as you cut bump stops and use a hammer. Try to measure distance for you as we'll.

Wow those wheels fit the car perfectly. I prefer the black to all polished. What size tires are you running on the front and back?

Thanks for the comments!! 275" rear tire and a 245" front tire I think. Have to double check that.

In those pics my springs are just heated. Felt just like you and the heated approach is quickest to get low. Intrax springs on now.

Heated????

Here is mine.

Re: 86 blue IROC 17" Billet Specialities street lites with pics
 
Sweet!! Never get tired at looking at blue third gens. Love that color!! Yeah just heated up my stock springs to lower it. They compress quick once hot enough so do a little and have someone watching. As soon as it starts dropping stop heating. Good enough until I could get some springs. Ride isn't all that bad either.

love it. nice pics, btw.

this is making me want to bump up to a 17" wheel for better tire selection. what tires are you running?

indebt 03-21-2014 07:43 PM

Re: 86 blue IROC 17" Billet Specialities street lites with pics
 
Nitto nt-05r's in back and nitto 555's up front.

Can you give the full sizes of the tires?

Thanks! 245/45 and 275/40 rears. Think a buddy of mine might be buying them and I would get black Weld RTS 15" rear wheels and a 17x4" front. Saw a similar setup on here and it looked sweet. What's everyone think about that? I love the street lights and only selling because he is needing some wheels and asked to buy mine. Think either setup would look great

The Weld setup sounds good but those Street Lites just look like they were meant for that car. I'm hoping to get a set for mine soon

The Street Lites are possibly the best looking (IMO) aftermarket wheels for the 3rd gen Camaro. They look right and are somewhat similar to the OEM 5 spoke from earlier models. Going to a 17" really does open up the selection of tires too.
You mention getting the Intrax springs installed. Do you have any measurements from the fender lips to the ground? I run the Intrax as well and I'm looking for comparisons.

Car is on jackstands right now. I need to install front springs then get my tires back. I'll measure for you after that. Before my passenger side was lower then driver both front and back. I'm hoping a spring up front is not in the pocket right.

Well I hope I don't regret it but I've sold my street lites to a buddy. Just ordered some 17x4.5 black weld rts and 15x9.275 rears. Be a week or so before I get everything. Il post up new pics and prob start new thread.

Well here's the new setup. 17x4.5" front and 15x9.25" rear on 275/50 MT drag radial. Looks meaner. Just need more hp to back it up now.
