TPIROC Unveiled! Give me feedback! PICS!!!
There are quite a few pics, I'll just post a few here since they are quite large. Here's a link to all of the pics. (These pics are hosted.) The emblems are from a 2003 SS Silverado, and the rims are 18x9.5" on all four. Let's hear it, good, bad, bad ***, or ugly?


Sorry for the 59Kers, hit my CarDomain page for smaller images. As far as the SS badges are concerned, I know there are many mixed feelings, if you want to discuss that, there's a post Flynlow started about that.
Edit; nipped a couple pics out. All of the pics still here though!

i like it , the badges look really good. i like the little stripeds on the side but i dont like the one on the front of the car. Is the car lowered, do you have any trouble with the tires rubbing. Where did you get the rims and how much, did you use adaptors, sorry for all the questions but i like the rims. the car looks great !

Bad ***! I love that look. My only beef with it is the stripes on the side, the front looks awesome. Those are the 2002 SS rims off the Camaros, right? Or... z06 rims, yes?

The rims are Z06 Corvette replicas purchased from the ebay seller AFS Wheels (afswheels). It was a wheel and tire package that was just over a G shipped. I used spacers that were a hair under 2", I jacked the car up under each wheel (loaded suspension) and turned the wheels both ways fully and there didn't appear to be any problems. However I haven't driven the car with the rims on it, I am doing a lot of tinkering with it right now (it sat for a month at the paint shop). The tires are 275/35 ZR-18's. I think that covers it, anything else? Oh the car is dropped 2" on all four.

I think the stripes are *** ugly, but the wheels have left me absolutely speechless. I don't even like polished z06 wheels, but oh my *** they look amazing on your car! I think I just decided what wheels are going on my IROC when the time comes.

very nice looking car and I must say the z06 replicas look absolutely fantastic on your ride. Great choice. Im not a big fan of the little stripes, you get a mark for originality on them, maybe they'll grow on me.
Great work!

nice but dont forget to take the stickers off ur tires before u go anywhere first becuz its a pain to peal the stickers off once the tire has gone around
Pretty sweet man, looks awesome...except I'd personally ditch the offset stripe on the front. The side ones are pretty cool though. I definitely like the clear corners too
If you read my responses in FlynLow's thread, you'll know how I feel about the SS badges:nono:...

At first glance I didn't like the stripes, but now that i keep looking at it... I think they're awesome.
