35th SS Rims??

Is there anywhere that sells the 10-spoke rims from the 35th SS? I looked at SLPonline figuring they would have some take-offs, but they only have them in silver painted or chrome, not the black/polished look of the 35th SS.

Re: 35th SS Rims??

Heres the website with the 35th anniversary SS rims. And it is a hell of a great deal. I emailed them to see if in fact it was for a set and they said yes, so I placed an order a few days ago. So Im looking forward to the arrival of these rims and can't wait to put them on my car.

By the way I got a white Camaro and hopefully they look just as good as they do on the 35th annv. SS Camaro.

I was going to go with C6 rims because I already know they look good on white Camaros but I went with the 35th rims because I think they look awsome.

I will post some pictures when I get them installed.

Re: 35th SS Rims??

Believe it or not painted 10 spokes have the machined surfaces that the 35th Anv. wheels do. I found this out when I stripped mine. Now I have 35th Anv wheel clones that were my stock painted 10 spokes. I think I spent $50 in materials etc. It is a time consuming process though. They're not perfect because I got in a rush, weather was bad (no garage at the time), and I had paint issues but it can be done.

Re: 35th SS Rims??

he is correct. I found this out when trying to replicate mine for drag wheels.
the only thing missing is the center caps.

this is an old post so you probably wont see this, but what did you do for your center caps?

Ive got em on my 96 T/A. I painted the center caps black to voer the bowtie and they look awesome with the black center caps, I think better than with em silver.

I'd have to agree. The machined aluminum of the wheel is a different shade than the caps and it makes it look pieced together/cheap to me.
