Need an opinion on these rims

DukesOfHazard · 11-04-2009, 12:43 PM

I can get a set of 4 of these rims with tires for $225. Whaddaya think? They're 16 inch rims off an older Z28. I drive a 2000 Z28, these came off a 97 or 98 Z28.

No comments on the rims guys? Not even better looking than these?

TTT no thoughts on the chrome vs snowflakes?

Save up your money and get some 18's or atleast 17's, those are bogus.

If YOU like them, that's all that matters.......

Yea dude, who cares what other people think. Those are pre-98 wheels by-the-way. I cant remember ever seeing chrome ones, they may be aftermarket....

They were the "standard" wheel for ALL the 93-97, maybe even '98 cars. My '96 Z-28 came with them as the standard wheel, although I think the chrome finish may have been optional.

93-96*

^^ Yup, those wheels are 93-96 style.

97 Camaro 16" wheels looked like this.

i would score them and keep them for spares..never know whats on the road hazard wise and a spare set is always a good deal to have..and if you need to you could put them on w/ dr's for the track..and keep your other tires..

They're referred to as "salad shooters". I still have mine in storage but they're not chromed. Being 16 inch in diameter they are good for street / drag radials because of the taller 50 % aspect ratio.

Personally, I like them and think GM hit a homer (sic) when they designed them for the Z28.... I truly appeciate modifications of almost all kinds and the chrome option for those wheels are great imho. If you buy them, keep them and show them on occasion. You'll have a classic wheel that makes your car different from the throng.
