Zo6 or C5 rims?

I'm thinking of getting some rims for my 96 z28. I was trying to decide between those 2. Which one do you think looks better? Also can i use the same exact rims off of a corvette or are they to big. Also what is the widest tire i can get for the back? Thanks.

Listen to me!
If you want the best lookin camaro then do the following
Get:
chrome 18 inch z06 rims
xenon ground effects
Camaro SuperSport wing
Gts Blackouts all around
And hopefully you have a black car, becuase this combo is KILLER on a black z28. You should see my camaro, its jaw dropping

z06 rims are definetly the way to go, and yes you can get any rims off a corvette, any z06 rims will work on the camaro. Tire width all depends on the rear rim size, If you want a wide tire, then get 10.5-11 inch rims and then you can fit like 315-335's on there and it would look even more killer!

Well yeah that would be pretty sweet. But no my car is dark green. I also don't have that much money for all that right now. I just need to get 2 tires for the back. But since i wanna get some rims soon i may as well do it now. But i was thinking of only getting 17's because they are cheaper.

Cheaper then you think!

Xenon Body Kit- $600
Rims- $1000 (18" z06)
SS wing- $260
Backouts- $80
Window Tint- $180
Tires- $600
Repaint your whole car Pearl Black- $600
Check out http://earlscheib.com/ they are a great paint job place, and I have seen their jobs, the price is VERY cheap for the quality of work they do, they also have a 6 year warrantee and have pearl and clear coatsa they put on the car for a show car finish.

Total to make your whole car look like a beast- $3060
Trust, whens its done you will **** your pants!!!!!
Dont forget to get some chrome muffler tips!

Honda??? Wow, obviously you have not seen what a camaro like this would look like. The wing is not a ricer wing, it is the wing that you would see on a 98+ SS camaro. The rims are corvette rims. The paint job is an agressive black color. Black outs add evev more agressiveness along window tint. The ground effects I was talking about doesnt even compare to the honda or import body kits.... This is something totally different. When this is done, people can easily identidy it as NOT being an import.. what are you talking about when you say honda?

"an aggressive black color".............um.....last i checked, black is black, and it wasnt attacking anyone, so im not sure what makes it any more "aggressive" than any other color.

You cant possibly say that a GM CHEVROLET CAMARO SS wing is rice. If you think so then so be it, I dont care.

This Ground effects kit Im talking about is not what you think it is, its actually a very nice kit that tranforms the car into a way better look.
