the ROH wheels are awesome. To bad tires are gonna cost a fortune. 17x9.5'' rim :hail: :hail: :hail:

I wanted them but I figured tires would end up costing to much.

Actually prices for 17" tires are not that bad , you can get a very good tire for about $100/150 each. Check www.tirerack.com for prices. The wheels are the big money items.

Mine are just polished. I dont think they even offer chrome TT IIs but I could be wrong.

I dont like chrome stuff on the outside of camaros tho...under the hood is a different story

They make chrome TT D's. They are listed in Summit. For a 15 x 8 the polished TT II is $199.95 and the chrome TT D is $342.95 I can't tell the difference betweem them but the chrome always looks better. I just wasn't spending and extra $100+ per rim.

Once you determine what you want to go with give me a call.
512.259.1616. We can get you some incredible pricing on the rims you select.

If I am not available. Ask for Todd

If it says 4th gen wheels made to fit a third gen car, adapters would be the only way. Just e-mail him and ask "Does it come with adapters?"
