Rims are a generic "no"...you need more rubber on those tires....and hood pins are aight.

That car needs to be lowered...

Rims are pretty lame. My opinion though...

I'm a fan of the hood pins, I want a set.

i know the car needs lowered its on my to do list. hood pins are cheap. i know the rims arent the best but for $300 there a big improvement from what i had. id have to say they look better i person though. if i could have any rims id get c6 corvette rims. check out my car domain to see my old rims.

I thought the rims looked pretty good myself. I agree with the other posters that said it needs to be lowered, too much space above the tire and below the fender. Or taller tires

You look happy though in the first pic hehe!

leeperryracing

lowered on some 16" irocs would look much better but thats just me.

the hood pins look good. i dont really care for the rims, but difinietly lower it if you are going keep them.

The rims arn't really my taste and they make the car look like a 4x4. But hey for $300 they are better than what you had. If the hood was fiberglass and the pins were there for a functional reason, then yea they are cool. But just for looks I think they are kind of lame and a waste of a good hood. Just my and your car should be your style.

well you asked my opinion so here it is.... those rims look like import rims and hood pins IMO are tacky. those wires will reek havoc on your paint. then again it's your ride and if you like it then it's worth it.

as long as it makes you happy thats good. The rims are not the best ive seen but not the worst either. I think for a budget you did alright. Youll lower it, so EVERYONE stop beating a dead horse. As far as the hood pins are concerned...im not really decisive. I guess if they are functional cool, if not kinda lame.

rwdtech

the rims arent that bad. i think it will look a lot better when you lower it. you might want to think about getting gfx, either 85-90 or 91-92 style. cars that have low profile wheels and tires look a little awkward without gfx. nice car tho man, post some daytime pics

i guess i should have mentioned that the pins are functional. my hood latch was broke and i plan to get a fiberglass hood in the future. also that hood was junk anyway, cant tell in the pic but theres dents all over it. and i want to get 85-90 gfx. also good to kow that cables can hurt my paint, ill get rid of them when the new paint is on. thanks for the replies everyone. ill try to get some daytime pics. but im heading to boot camp this monday so time is limited.

I think once it's lowered it will look 100x better. I've seen those wheels before on another camaro and they looked pretty good in person.

Sounds like you had the need to buy. Patients son. should have saved that 300 and then some to get some real nice wheels.

I don't know what the problem is with the wheels, I think they're fine. I know you want to lower it, but why the hell is it so high in the first place? Even stock springs won't jack the car up like that. Those springs have to be for a different car or something.

DillonRager

iTrader: (1)

you may be right but thats how i bought it so i dont kow for sure.

Sure, the wheels are a little "bling-blingish", but I think they look fine on the car. I also think it looks good with no GFX.

Tint the windows as dark as possible. Mine are illegal @ 5% but when I get pulled over i just roll my windows down right away...

i think it would look good with the later ground fx, i wouldnt lower it too much, I have a lowered RS and it SUCKS, sure it LOOKS awesome but its a PITA to drive, zero ground clearance, scrapes on every driveway, you gotta go like 1 mph all the time, and its a rough ride.

InfernalVortex

iTrader: (4)

It doesn't need ground fx, just needs to be lowered.

I bet hte rims will look much better with the car lowered too. The ground fx are there to make the car look lower to the ground. mw66nova's car is a good example of how all it takes is a good stance to make the car look low and sleek.

Dont get me wrong, I love ground fx and I love the gfx on my car, but if you dont ahve em you can get 90 percent of that look and feel just by bringing the car an inch or two closer to the road.

And I doubt the car is any higher off the grund than it should be, it's all about mismatched rim size, tire size, and ride height. Those 3 things HAVE to be proportioned right for the car to look good, because otherwise you get tehse optical illusions like this where the car looks like it's ready to go offroading. Again, lowering it will fix it, and as long as you dont do duals, you'll have better ground clearance than us ground fx guys too!

For the record, I dont like those wheels, but there are people here with wheels that look much, much worse, and people love them and their cars. There's no accounting for taste. I personally hate most of hte giant chrome wheels I've seen people put on these cars. My idea of a good lookin wheel is a SLP ZR1 wheel.

Yeah but i just think with the ground effects it just looks sharrrp

I'm not a fan of those rims either but the car would look better dropped and it would make the rims better also IMHO.

Check it out, I drop your car for you.

Even with lowering the car, rims still look ugly.
