  • Wheel advice

    What wheels would you suggest for a SOM Camaro? Looking for something that is relatively low maintenance yet still "pop". Budget is definitely a factor but it doesn't necessarily have to be dirt cheap.

    Thinking maybe something with a brushed/machined finish with a clear coat. Open to all suggestions though.

          SOM is the easiest color to put wheels on. I've seen full polished, brushed and gunmetal look incredible. Of course it depends on size. Personal preference is a full polished 18" 5spoke anything without rivets. A simple 505 CCW comes to mind....

              Well crap, if you guys want to pitch in I'll call up CCW first thing and get a set on the way. I do agree that's a nice choice though!

              I'm torn on the size thing. 18" probably would look better, but 17" will have cheaper tires and ride better.

              Anyone know what wheels are out there with a fully brushed/machined finish?

                  Not 505s, but you get the idea BUT NO RIVETS! I believe these are brushed with a polished lip.



                  Really nice option for the budget....
