Thanks for the props. I had seen them on another Camaro and really liked the look. They happened to have them in stock from a cancelled order so I got real lucky today.

Are the pics you posted of the actual wheels you bought? If not please post pics when you get them. And what BS did you go with on the rear 10's?

Sick wheels BTW

I like dark centers, but full polished Fikse Profil 5s for me when the time comes.

Yes...those are actual pics of the wheels taken by Will @ Fikse. They are a little crappy because he took them with his phone.

Front = 8.0 X 18, 5 1/8" Backspace
Rear = 10.0 X 18, 5 5/8" Backspace

I was resigned to the fact that I would never get Fikse's as well. Will @ Fikse just happened to remember me from a couple of inquiries I had made over the past 6 months and called me up with this set that was a cancellation order. It just so happened that they were set up for my exact brake package and stock body panels. It was just luck and the price was decent for Fikse's.

Love the Fiske's - Once my car is done and my wallet recovers for a bit I want a set for my car too.

Thanks, please post pics of these wheels once they are mounted. Especially those rears. :unibrow:

Will do. I triple checked with Will @Fikse to make sure they would clear on the rear with my stock sheet metal. Apparently he is running the same size on his car with no issues. I think the trick will be the tires I run. I am leaning toward a 275/35/18 rear.
