Billit Specialties Street lites on a camaro?

Anyone have them or have any pictures of them on an IRoc? I am thinking about buying some fronts soon and might go with these. I'd really like to see them on a car before I make the purchase though. Thanks guys.

I had them on my 1LE/B4C Camaro I sold a few months ago.........they looked great with the big brakes. If you look at some of the dedicated racing sites like www.yellowbullet.com, you will probably see some as they look alot like Bogarts for half the price. Had to grind the fins on the rear PBR calipers to get them to fit though. Used a 15x8 wheel with 5.5 RS and a 3/8" spacer to move them out. Fronts had no issues and were 15x6. Any questions, let me know.

mw66nova has them for his, but not sure if he's got them on yet. His car is a berlinetta though, so no gfx.

Yellowbullet is a great site. I am there quite a bit. Do you have any pictures of your old car I can take a look at? How was the quality of the wheel in person?

Here's another........maybe a little better. The quality of the wheel is excellent.....funny thing is my girlfriend picked them out. I was gonna run a Weld Draglite and ended up with these! The guy that purchased it visits here, but I'm not sure if he is registered or not. He might be able to give you a few more pics.

It's a newer GM color called Imperial Blue Mica....think its on the new Colbalt to be honest. Looks bright blue in direct sun, has a purple sheen in indirect sun and is purple with cloud cover. Really unique color......

IMO I think chrysler electric blue on the PT cruisers, Daytona blue on the Nissan 350Z and whatever the blue is on the GTO's would look awesome.

BTW the steetlites look really nice on that car.

Re: Billit Specialties Street lites on a camaro?

Thanks! It's kinda cool cause it is like a custom paint but its not.....my painter didn't charge me any extra for laying it on. Another GM color I was considering was Imperial Blue Metallic......A little darker, almost black but more metallic and still has the pearl affect. We actually wanted to go with this color but me and the painter confused the mica/metallic and I ended up with this color. Better choice when it was all done...

Whats up with the S10 in the avatar? A friend and I run one too that goes low 10's.

Thanks for the compliment......I thought they were a really nice wheel, especially for the price.

Re: Billit Specialties Street lites on a camaro?

the s10 ive had since i was 15. was my first vehicle. me and my dad did all the chassis setup for the back half and the paint. it was running a 355 and going 11.00 at 127. then i added spray and ws running 9.90s at 135-137.
and now im testing the 357" turbo motor for my camaro. will be t88 turbo with csu 850 carb on e85. motor is in it and running. im taking it now to get the headers made and rest of the tubbing. then it will be a running driving turbo s10. untill the camaro is ready for the power. then its getting the turbo setup and im puting the 355 back in the s10 with a 8-71 and lower comp pistons. with the dual plate kit. i have way too many projects so its taking some time to get the camaro going.
