Re: whats everyone think

Get yourself some new rims for the love of god. I hate that style rim. Any style 5 star just looks right on a Camaro.

Re: whats everyone think

Heres a really, really good reason why you should get new wheels.

In the late 80s Honda released a 3rd Generation Prelude with that very style of wheel on it.

And we all know the 80s were not a good time for style, or design etc etc etc

Sorry, but its true.
They were real "cool" in the 80s, some BS about the design was more "areodynamic!" and blew air towards the brakes to help keep them cool.
They were very trendy in Japan, and Honda just copied a design from an aftermarket wheel manufactor.

Re: whats everyone think

i hate the rims on early-mid 4th gen camaros. those five spokes make the car look really cheap. they would go better on a cavalier.

I don't mind the salad shooters, but if you got some extra cash lying around, get some new wheels.
