Hopefully someone can help point this out.... What looks so off? At first I like the lowered height but someting looks funny. Is it the dish/size of the wheels?

man those wheels look tiny on that car, I would rather have the stockers. nothing too radical :/ but i like what they did on the rear

couldnt agree more. those wheels are terrible IMO but many others like them.

Yeah, the wheel choice doesn't fit the car at all.

Nice car, horrible choice in wheels. Stockers look 3x better than those things. I was disappointed with the wheels when the unvailed the yellow one at Berger too.

Actually, they are wider than the stockers, both front and rear. Yup, the wheels seem to be the most controversial part of the Berger SS package. Kind of a love them or hate them deal. I like them both. I think the stockers are one of the best looking wheels out there, and it's hard to improve on them. The ones on the Berger SS cars are actually very expensive Forgeline wheels with specific offsets just for Berger. I have not seen many aftermarket wheels that really look great on the 5th Gens yet.

Wheels look like 17s? What size are they Doug? what widths are they running also?

The front wheels are 20 X 9.5 and the rears are 20 X 10.5

I think the wheels present sort of an optical illusion. The factory wheel design has the spokes go right out to the edge of the wheel, while the Frogeline's spokes only go out to the hoop part of the wheel, making them "look" smaller. The factory wheel is definately a bold design. I like 'em a lot.

i was talking height wise... they are still 20's just like they come from the factory.

[nascarnate326]

Wow I figured that thing had 315's not 305. Are all 20 sold?

[WMCC Doug]

I'm not sure if they're all sold yet, but pretty close, I think.

[white96TA]

rims may be the same size in height but I think it is the way the spokes do not extend out as far as the stockers that make the wheels look small.

I love the Berger car. And in time it will stand out as one of the better dealer modified Camaros. I personally don't care much for the spokes coming out to the edge of the rim, that's why I don't care much for 'Vette rims. I also think the stockers are typically too narrow. I like the rims, and the car looks great in person.
