Wow, thanks, pu12en12g!!!

Since this has been brought back up...

I used to have on the car chrome ZR1 wheels. 9.5" in the front and 11" in the rear. I liked it a lot but had the wheels when the car was black. Well, I've bought another set of the same wheels and will be either putting them on this yellow 96SS or on the 94Z.

So, what do you guys think? Leave the Torgue Thrust II wheels on the yellow 96SS or put the chrome ZR1s on there? I'm thinking chrome is going to look very cool on that millennium yellow! Opinions?

Thanks!

The Chrome ZR1's would look extremely good IMO. That is without question the way I would go.

Good to see you back a bit more here lately - you disappeared almost there for a few weeks.

so do you have three camaros? i think the zr1's would look sweet, but you really cant go wrong either way...i would probably lean towards the zr1's though even though its the more common choice..you're keeping both sets right? so you can change them back and forth according to your mood

Yes, I'll be on more now. For the last 5 weeks I've been working 80 hours a week... 92 hours a week if you count drive time. By the time I got home I practically had to go to bed so I could be rested enough to go back to work. It was no fun. But, back on a normal 50 hour a week schedule now so I'll be back to my normal self

Actually, I've got 4 Camaros. I have a 2000SS that I don't have listed in my sig. I probably don't "need" that one so it is up for sale. LOL!

I'll be keeping both sets of wheels... at least for a while. What I'll do is put the ZR1s on there and take some pics. That's the beauty of wheels modding... not too difficult to undo what you done or switch things around to see how it looks unlike painting a car where it is a bit more difficult and expensive to go back to what you had before

Well, I like those too but if you've known me for any amount of time, you can probably see that I get bored with the same thing after a while. While I really really like the way the TTII wheels look, I've had them on the car for over a year now... might be time for a change

I also purchased a set of the black GS wheels with the polished lip... 11s for the rear as well. I don't have enough tires to mount tires on everything and a good buddy of mine so much as told me he'd shoot me if I put those wheels on my car. I took it as though he didn't like them. hahaha I don't know... I thought it would look pretty good/different. Those might look good on my 94Z? Hmm? I do like the Enkei wheels on there now but I really want 11s on the back

Yep.

Speaking of that Brent, I just sent you an e-mail.
