I like how theirs no more fender lip. Do you need to modify the fenderwells though?
The only problem is that wheels that big would hurt performance because of the extra unsprung weight.

Black IROC 86 - I know they are photochopped,,,i ment they looked larger then real 20" on his car.
LowCamaro- the blue camaro with the 20's cardomain is: http://members.cardomain.com/u8win_n
He also has his camaro in one of camarosource.ca 2004 camaro calanders.
TransAm12sec- Ask LowCamaro about fender lips......Id say there stock on the blue camaro....my front wheels are about 1/2'' away from the fender lip sitting still,,,but thats runing lowering springs with a shorter spring travel,,mind you the wheel can travel up a bit inside the fender well before the rubber snubs on the lower control arm will stop on your frame. My stock tire height is like 26" (i think) as long and i get a 20"tire/rim combo no higher then 26" im cool (providing my backspaceing and measured tire width is the same as stock).

Are you trying to say that my old stock rims weren't blinging
I don't mind the IROC rims and the GTA rims. I think they look pretty sweet. I just like the rims I have on my car now a lot better

I rarely find a wheel that I think fits better than stock. It would be cool if some of them were larger though. GM has a record of awesome wheels. That's not to say that aftermarket rims look bad.
Look how many people are runnin' Y2K's, ZR1's, 10 spokeSS, ZO6's...etc. All factory. I think the 3rd gen rims are no different, except that they're not 17" or bigger.

they look sharp, but too big for me...
I don't think I'd run anything bigger than 17 inch rims myself.
...then again, I'm harping on a car w/ nicer rims, and I'm still running stock 87 SC rims w/ 215/65/15s on 'em....
...guess I'd rather go fast than look cool, props to those than can afford both.
