Scored some 2015 Camaro take-off wheels
Scored some 2015 Camaro take-off wheels
Got these take-offs that had 20 miles on them. There's a shop that does work for new car dealers. He said he had these for a while and wanted to just blow them out. $400! I'm tempted to get 2 matching front wheels, and run all the same size so I can rotate the tires...but I do like the staggered look.

Re: Scored some 2015 Camaro take-off wheels
Nice. I've been thinking of looking for 19" take-offs, but was concerned about how they'd look. I'll be interested to see how these look on your car. Those should save some unsprung weight.

Re: Scored some 2015 Camaro take-off wheels
Of course this comes around when I had pretty much decided to keep the stock wheels and use up the tires I just bought about 5k miles ago. Oh, and I wanted the full 9C3 wheel covers, so I spent another couple hundred bucks on those too! They're still in the box. I wonder if I should get rid of all that once I get tires, as they'd probably sit in the garage forever anyway. If you know any local takers, I might entertain that.
I think the 19s look good. There's a pic of one somewhere in the 5 page post about Camaro 20s. Someone has the 19s and posted a pic.

Re: Scored some 2015 Camaro take-off wheels
Yes, I saw that. They said they were Camaro RS take-offs. I'm looking for those. Figure I'd put Hoosier A7s on them for autocross.

Re: Scored some 2015 Camaro take-off wheels
Yep, those would work out nicely. I'll keep an eye out for them.

How much do you want for the 9C3 Wheel covers? I have three that are damaged and two of the four are truly brake dusted up beyond repair.bsparks72 wrote:Of course this comes around when I had pretty much decided to keep the stock wheels and use up the tires I just bought about 5k miles ago.

Re: Scored some 2015 Camaro take-off wheels
on the other hand, they do look nice (Scott Walker has them on his PPV)--in fact, to me they look better on Caprice than they do on Camaro.CrashTestDummy wrote:>sigh<

Ironically, for proper fit, the 9" rear wheel needs more offset and/or a smaller tire than is used on Camaro in production.
20" wheels get heavy quick, but aftermarket does offer some lighter options--all tend to be more expensive, and in many cases, I suspect the wheel load rating (as followed by GM's engineering practices) is more of a wink & nod situation.
Many wheels out there are like flying without a parachute--you can't even get the manufacturers to tell you what the specs are, or they're nowhere near as robust as OEM-supplied wheels.
