Default Im going nuts.....

I cannot find a wheel im happy with in the sizes i want for my camaro anywhere without going towards an iforged or fikse. I know alot of you guys have probably done extensive research into wheels and may be able to point into a better direction. The wheels are going on a 2002 Camaro SS. It stock suspension for now but in the coming months it will have Strano drop springs and Strano valved bilstein shocks. None of which should change my wheel fitment. Heres basically what im looking for....


Front: 17 or 18x9 or 9.5 5x120 +50 offset
Rear: 17 or 18x10.5 5x120 +56 offset


I really want 17's because i want as much tire as possible on it. I plan to run 295's in the rear and the stock 275's in the front and im looking towards a yokohama advan or a nitto invo.



Whatever thoughts, opinions, needs to call someone an idiot...... Feel free to shoot them my way. This is the car they will be going on....

I like the ZR-1 wheels on 4-gen f-bodies, 17x11 will fit in the back with stock wheel wells. They run the stock size in the front, plus you'll have 315/35r17 in the back.

Forgeline had a sale on untill the end of the month (today), but maybe Frank from Prodigy customs can help you. I would give him a shout and see what he can do for you.

Theres two many camaros running around here with zr1's, im looking for something a bit out of the ordinary, ZE forged has a wheel i really like but i have a feeling the price is going to give me (and my wife) a stroke. I'll be feeling out in the next couple of weeks then making a decision.

Thumbs up

How about some RUSHFORTH's? FESLER has some wheels as well.
I don't blame you for wanting to get something different.

We got 10s and 11s wit 285 and 305 on Lisa's WS6. they are 19s but the BS would be the same on 17s. I have sales on Forgline and Fikse, and also have killer 2 piece Bonspeed and Boze which are less money and can be bulkt to the specs you need and have the brake clearance you need. We can do killer Forgeline and Fikse 3 piece wheels will run $3500 to $4000, the 2 piece wheels start at $2k and go up from there.

Here is Lisa's WS6
