I dont get any super deal on them. I get them for $199 Canadian each for polished. which is like $120 american. But they are ONLY available in 17x8". That pic of the Camaros actually looks like C5 wheels.

120 american IS a good deal. I haven't looked TOO expensively, but the best price I've seen is 209. I need to find them for $120!!!!!!! Anybody know where I can find a good deal on these?!

I wouldnt call them tall. But ya, they are kinda skinny. But, This is why they're cheap. I can afford them easily and they arent on everyother fbody like ss wheels or z06 wheels or whatever. Heres more pics I found of that same car. Though they are 8", they fill the wheel well better than a WS6 wheel well

I dunno...I'm just weighing my options. Seems like for chrome, these series 185's are gonna run maybe 210-240. For a set, that makes them $840, although you might catch a deal for a set @ $750 or so for the set. Seems to me that some chrome repro Y2K C5 wheels may be a better route to go. I mean...you can pretty much get those for the same price...and it's wider although by a mere .5 inch. LOL! I don't really guess a quarter inch on either side really makes a difference. Too many darned options!
