Wheel shopping - post your pics!

I'm wheel shopping for my Z28. I want something 17", wide enough to hold 275's comfortably. I'm thinking Z06 replicas, but undecided so far.

Post pics of your 98+ Camaros with 17" wheels, especially the navy blue metallic ones, so I can do some visual comparison shopping.

Thanks!

17x9 or 17x9.5 hold 275s.

Have you looked at wheels by ROH? Or maybe TTIIs?

A 275 is 10.8" wide. I'd much rather put them on 17x10s if I can find a good set of wheels in that size.

I will check out ROH. I don't much care for the look of the TTII, but it does meet my size requirements.

275s are perfect for a 9.5" wide wheel.

275's are perfect on 9.5 inch wheels

if you go with Z06's go with 18's...to me they dont look right as 17's

American Racing Torq-Thurst IIs in 17x9.5. I believe the offset is 44mm.
