They make these in 18" sizes... I'd be interested in seeing that.

 

Looks good, what color is that?

 

i put a set of camaro ss wheels on my 1988 gta an they look great . i am currently using 1.25" all four tires but i think i need to get 1.5" adapters on the front because the center cap is bulging out a little bit. also needd to get pontiac center caps.

ok i got the right adapters and correct center caps but i left 1.25" adapter in the rear and fronts are 1.5" adapters

 

Dude, you gotta post better pictures than that!

 

I do like how the rims look. I saw the black ones on a black car and it turned me off the idea for my car a little. Maybe Corvette Competition Grey or Gunmetal? I'm split on chrome though. I didn't feel I needed to go more than 18'' or to try an 18-19'' setup kind of like the 19-20'' they do on vette's. Idk....to each their own I guess.

 

Post up some more pic's please

 

The GTA is pretty neat. Not a big fan of the black on black unit.

All the snow here is gone now finally. Probably get some motivation and push it outside for some better side pics.

 

Pushed it out today. Almost lost as it rolled it in the street as its a little heavier with all the engine and stuff and it got away from me. The fender and trim parts are not bolted on fyi.

Im a little choked with my at home paint job. The paint color is amazing in the sun but its kinda mismatched in spots. Also my rear fender on the pass side needs some work as I f'd up the body lines and the rear isnt centered up 100% yet so the tires stickin out.

I don't know if I wanna complete this thing now or just part it out...

Slammed





Ride Height

 

that really nice man ..........loving the air ride..........

 

WOW loving it especially the color of the car. My plans are similars to yours so you might have a clone lol.

 

iv been looking all day for a set of replica c5 deep dish 18"s or c6 z06 18"s so i can just swap my tires and sell my current wheels.

after stumbling on this thread iv been researching the 5th gen wheels and im dead set on them for my camaro.
Found a set with tires for 600 (needs new rear tires)
What size tires fit bit for this setup and does the fronts rub?
Im using a 2" adapter up front and a 4th gen rear, any help would be awsome.



And to that one guy who keeps bashing any wheels bigger than 18"s and freaking out with unnessecary comments (thought you have a nice car) you need to realize everyone is different and has their own opionions and likes/dislikes so just STOP...you sound like a racist red neck jerkoff. I like 19"s and up on these cars as much as i like most mustangs or ricers.......BUT not being an ignorant jerkoff I CAN appreciate a good set of 20"s a set that looks amazing and flows well...as well as a well built 00 cobra or a 500 whp hatchback civic or a fully built turbo 280zx smoking big blocks on the 1/4 and driving home on pump gas think outside the box.

 

Got the wheels last night any one know exactly what i may need to do in my case
2" spacers up front
4th gen rear end
2010 wheels stock tires 245 45 20 in the front

 

That looks really good. Just wish they were wider.

 

Any rubbing issues while turning & is your car stock height?

 

yes, my TA is stock height and there some rubbing on the right side due to piece of inner splash shield sticking out a little. only thing i kinda hate is that it raised my car just a little. lol next project is installing 2010 camaro brakes

 

Im half way on copying your car Ace i just bought the 5th gen brakes this week and im in the process of painting my car silver as well haha

 

Do you think you could drop it? What size are the tires?

 

i would like to drop it to its orginal height but then again there alot whoopie-do where i work and hate bottoming out my ta. the tires size are same as ACE used. Tires are Nitto Invo255/30/20 and 275/30/20.

 

So i take it tires have to be changed to get them to fit? also my cars dropped 2" do you guys think these wheels will fit or am I going to have to go back to stock height? ACE how low did you drop it and still have them tuck well and not rub when you had them on your car?

 

I was up in the air with them on your early pics but the outside pics with it slammed gives them a thumbs up. Later.

 

Iroc replicas, 5th Gen wheels > everything else. Those wheels look amazing man especially against the color of your car!

 

got mine on today used longer arp studs and a .25 spacer on 4th gen rear and 2" spacers for the front...gotta adjust my panhard bar because its 7/16th to wide on the driver side rear and they rub in the front(havnt put the fenders on to see how bad they hit the fenders BUT im still using stock 275/40/20 tires in the rear and 245/45/20 tires in the front.

Rear wheels need hugs bored out or the spacer i got needs to be a bit bigger I went with a .25 spacer kinda figuring it would fit perfect after reading about ace using the .5's....
well the .25's arnt big enough to let the wheel clear the bore of the hub, by only .25 of an inch,so .5's are the best bet.

my car has dropzone 2" dropsprings and u cant barely fit a pinky in between fender and tire in the rear, hope the new tires will give it a little leeway

 

Yeah, you may have to go one size skinnier and 35 series and def. roll those fenders. Later.

 

thinking 255 all around with 30 series for extra clearence

 

Snagged a set off craigslist for $400 after seeing this thread. I think i'm going to go with the 30 series tires, I have a 2" tokico lowering kit so we'll see how well they work. Already have 4th gen rear end and 2" spacers up front. Will probably drop down to 1.5 spacers as thats what it seems is working best for people. Should look sharp on my black Z/28, and show off my Z51 Corvette brakes well. I got the lug nuts with the set of wheels but IIRC the 2010 is 14mm studs and our cars are 12mm studs correct? what has everyone been using for lug nuts and I take it the slight difference in the bolt pattern didn't matter? I didn't see this mentioned anywhere in the thread.

 

live wire did you ever get your wheels on?? get them on with no spacers in the rear? I tried 5/32 or 3/16 and their to small, going with 1/4 now hoping itll allow the wheel to clear the hub

 

You are mistaken sir, these wheels are not produced in an 18" size.

 

That looks great man!

 

IMO the rim style looks absolutely amazing on a 3rd gen. My only complaint is they need to make them in 18's because 20's are just overkill and look too big.

 

Thanks to everyone for the pics, conversation, and details. Just put mine on. Ended up using 245 35 20s on the front, and 255 35 20s on the back. With 1.5" spacers. The hubs bent the caps in the front - so may need another .25" at some point.

 

where did you get/how did you make the pontiac caps?

 

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ht_3895wt_1001

 

A little bit lower and than would look perfect. Looks amazing as is though.

 

Wow they look good!!!!!!!

 

I don't normally like 20" wheels and would never consider looking for some, but... the pics in this thread have convinced me. It doesn't look like a ghetto cruiser. I actually love the look. Was going to get some 17" vette rims but I like this look a whole lot better. The 5th gen rims look like they fit the 3rd gen better than they do 5th gens...

 

putting the 255/30/20's on the rims today and seeing if they fit better this time will post pictures after

 

Can't wait! Hopefully with fenders too trying to show my coworker they look good on a black car

 

everybodys **** looks siiiiick...

Looks great guys

 

fenders are on just gotta get the shop to put the tires on hoping today or thursday after work

 

looks like it rubs but looks great too

 

talking about the OP? lol. he has air ride

 

getting antsy waiting! got any pics yet? trying to source my own here soon.

 

been real busy here at base and im on vacation next week, soon tek i promise

 

haha no problem

 

so the grease cap is hitting the wheel?i wonder if a shorter grease cap can be found.

 

That might work

 

I agree, they're hideous on the 5th gen cars... and they're too big for our cars. But they have an aggressive look that actually seems to fit the third gen lines surprisingly well. I like em, but they're a little too big.

By the way the silver Camaro looks AMAZING. I've wished my car was silver for a while now.

 

Wha wha wait, 1st, I love the wheels!

But you got any more info on the 5th gen engine???

 

It's an LS3, available from GMPP.

No one else has pics on camaros? Looking for more colors like blue, red, and a black that is put together

 

ACE I sure as shooting plan on getting me a set as well, but I am looking at the SLP version that is black and chrome.... here is the site http://www.slponline.com/view_product_site.asp?P=81055 but yeah. So can you give me a listing of what you did for the rear end and suspension so that they fit... thanks. Plus you lowered your car, what would they be like without being lowered, is that the ride height you mention...
