What wheels?

I curently am one of those people who decided there was nothing better to do with all his money for years other than to dump it into his Camaro. I currently have a Silver 95 Z, with about $60,000 give or take a few hundred. I have gone through 3 sets of rims other than the salad shooters it came with. First it was the classic five point SS rims, then after every where I looked everyone had them, I decided to go with some 17X9.5 Konig Monsoons. I loved them, but once I put my Baer Brakes in they started to grind the insides of the wheels. After checking around I found that other than OEM rims, for 17 inch wheels they may or may not grind out. So to play it safe I got some 17X9.5 charcoal grey ZO6 rims. Now, again, I want to step up. This time I would like to get some 18's, preferrably not GM ones. Does anyone out there have pics of some 18's on their F-Body? Preferrably on a Camaro? I am looking for more of a 5 point style, but any pictures are welcome.

Re: What wheels?

The iForged Aero is the best looking wheel out there right now. I will be going with the Stern ST11 when spring time comes around.

Those don't look to bad at all! I don't mind the look of a good 17inch rim, I am doing it more for the fact I want to put either a 4 or 6 piston caliper brake up front. Got any other good looking rim ideas?
