Thanks for some of the inputs... it's going to be 18s all the way around....

Just need to pick the wheels now. Bonspeed or Rushforth? I need help here with a style. Either the typical 5-spoke (live wire/rushforth or SS/Bonspeed), mesh look (GT-B/Bonspeed), or multi spoke (rated -X/ Rushforth).

Heres attachment of the camaro.. Hopefully someone is good with photo shop..




-Dan

Try the new Rushforth Night Trains. Great spin on the typical mesh design. Just different enough to stand out from the crowd but still keeps the mesh feel and look. I think they are really classy looking and would look great on almost any car.
Just my .02

Jason, I have a shot of the Night Train wheel but it is too big to load here. Do you have one you can post? Maybe even one with a black center like on the orange Mopar?

That'll be great if I can see a picture on a camaro. I found a couple online but they aren't on a camaro.

I like those Rated X but what are your opinions?

Picking a style of wheels are killing me.

My opinion is that the Rated-X looks awesome on everything and we've put them on everything from 33 Fords to brand new full size trucks and musclecars ranging from the 60s to the modern ones.

As far as the Night Trains on a Camaro, we're building a set for one right now but as of this moment, the only ones in existence are these but a good rule of thumb when buying wheels is if you like the wheel, you'll love it on your car.

Is any one good with photoshop here

haha. I would love to see a mocked up picture of those night trains on a black car... maybe a black face with brushed hoop? or even gun metal with polished hoop.

the bumpers and stuff on my car are powder coated black just for some more info.

Dan--if you live in So Cal area, let me know---you can come by my place and we can put a front and rear on one side of your car---you will know right away whether or not you like the size, model, color, etc--although I know Rushforth Super Spokes are not on your list---you can still get a feel for a black center wheel with a polished hoop. Jon and the guys at Driverz Inc were a huge help in getting these Rushforth's to fit they way they do--I highly recommend them.

I really like the Rated X also. IN fact I had my car designed with those in mind. Black centers, brushed hoops. That was before the Night Train came out. So now I am riding the fence on which one to go with. You really can't go wrong either way.
