Man honestly if I had to pick a rim right now I'd rock the ROH RT's. I havnt seem them on any car yet, they're tight. Aside from that if you're going for uniqueness, the HRE 542's are my fav, the Fikse FM5s are nice too.
Edit: btw, what mag is that car from? That's exactly how I want to get mine done aside from the fact I'd keep my side molding stuff.

either 2000 or 01 camaro performers i believe. check over at thirdgen.org and you'll find out.
i was considering hre until i found out who made them.....not that it's bad but hre puts their name on the wheel and charges twice the price so in principle i'm against them now. :D
the fiske wheel is also a nice wheel but very common. i think all three of those you mentioned are nice but a different look then what i'm going for.
i'm looking for more of a classic cruiser/hot rod look unlike the more race look you get with the other wheels.

Have you seen edelbrocks new line of wheels? Those wheels look like they belong on hot rods. All of there adds show their wheels on 1st gen camaros. I think they come in decent sizes too, like 17x91/2. and 17x11s. You know, bad ass fat wheels. Not like your modern hoopte with the 22x8 skinny ass wheel.....
O' if I were you Id go with the first wheels. I love those wheels . The second set look good, but the flatness of the wheels make them look like there freaking huge. I never liked anything over a 18inch wheel on a 3rd gen. The car has to sit right on a big wheel, I swear none of the homies know this, but, after you lay the 20s down to sleep your suposed to tuck them in if you follow me. That first pic does those wheels mad justice. The car sits on em perfect. They just look at home if you know what I mean.

As soon as I saw your topic, I was super hoping that the rodders were not one of your options. I loved the look of those things even befor I saw them on that black and purple car, and they have been my rim of choice to finish off my project.
Even though I would like to see the least amount of third gens with these rims as possible, in all honesty I say the rodders. Heck, we can always put up a poll to see who's car looks better with them afterwards. :)

yeah, i did the wide wheel thing on the thirdgen and realized that it wasn't what i wanted at all.
i'll more then likely be going with an 8/10 combo just so i can have the right stance.
the rodder 5 seems to be the general wheel of choice.......
thanks guys!
