Anyone using 10 spoke SS rims???

I was curious if anyone is using the 10 spoke SS rims on their 3rd gen, espicially the 35th anniversary style (polished face with black inserts). Wanna see how they look on a Black 92' Z28. Post pics if you have some mounted. Thanks in advance.

Freakin' bada$$. Those would really set your car off. Way better than those '91-'92 rims.

Re: Anyone using 10 spoke SS rims???

Look at this guys profile... (Bradlyj8Z28) He has SS rims. Looks really good if you ask me. He has some videos of his car running, maybe if you ask him he might send you a link?

You really can't go wrong when you put just about any other nicer stock rims on a car by the same manufacturer. I put 2007 20" GMC Truck wheels on my 2006 Yukon XL (old body style) in replacement of my Mickey-Mouse 16" stock rims and they look killer. And to top it off, they've got GMC center caps.

Those SS wheels would look killer on any Camaro of any generation IMO.

Re: Anyone using 10 spoke SS rims???

I just recently bought a pair for my 91 RS. I haven't put them on the car yet because I haven't bought tires. Personally I think they look pretty good, fairly similar to z06 wheels which is what I originally wanted but couldnt pass up the price on these. I do wish mine were the 35th aniv ones but I'm happy with the regular ones.

Re: Anyone using 10 spoke SS rims???

I think I had 2 1/4 up front and 2" in the rear. I swapped to a 4th Gen rear and it doesn't require a spacer.

I just found the wheel I want to run on my car. That is a good look. I want to do those but powdercoat them satin with a red bead around the edge for my red 25th anniversary Z28.

Re: Anyone using 10 spoke SS rims???

I bought my adapters from eBay. But be careful, the center bore was a hair too small on the first set that I received. I used 2" all around and my wheels and tires were perfectly flush with 285/40/17's. I had to roll my fenders

Re: Anyone using 10 spoke SS rims???

Here they are on a Trans Am. 2" spacers, rubbing at full lock but IIRC early third gens had more steering angle.

I have 2 1/4 in front, but I want to go to 2 since the outer bit of the tire will rub on the inner fender on full lock. The rear is no spacer with a 4th gen rear and still some room on either side of the tires.

Re: Anyone using 10 spoke SS rims???

I dont really like them usually... until I saw this car in one of the other wheel threads:

Name:  100_0722.jpg
Views: 2500
Size:  74.2 KB

The thing is... it doesnt look bad, but I hate how that crappy matte silver just looks like plastic. Just screams aluminum wheel trying to look like a hubcap. I also hate chrome, just tacky looking on our cars. The machined aluminum look is fantastic as long as you dont have the black accents. With the black accents it just looks weird. So then Im thinking I kinda like the shape of the wheel, but just not the color... so what other options are there?

Although I dont like black wheels, they dont look half bad in black...



But I got thinking that they would probably look great in competition gray like the Z06 wheels... and I found these pics on LS1tech and decided I was right on the money! In competition gray, these wheels look AMAZING.





http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...s/IMG_0226.jpg

Doesnt look like plastic, looks like a functional, lightweight wheel. You know how opinions are... bottomholes, but I like an aggressive looking wheel that doesn't look like it was made to put on a showcar. Competition gray doesnt work on every wheel, but it looks AMAZING on some of them.
