      Does anybody make a wheel kinda like...

      the camaro concept wheels? Something like a really solid 5 spoke that tapers in towards the hub?

      Intro V-Rod and quite a few of our other 5 spoke designs taper as they go to the center. You're probably not going to find that spoke thickness in any billet wheel though.

      This is our G5 wheel, it's not on our website. looks awesome with a polished face and brushed details(lug holes and lip around the windows) if you would like pics in other finishes pm me and i can email them to you.

      That's why they call it "concept."
      Even the production wheel the camaro is coming out with do not look quite like the concepts.
      Sounds like a wheel manufactor ought to jump on that idea as no one has one that looks the same. Anyone have any idea who made the concept's wheels?

      Not to hijack the thread but I would love more pics of these.
      Have any pics that show the wheel on a car?

      wow, thank all of you guys for your quick responses. I'm not going to get ANYTHING done at work today as I look through all of these!

      I figured it would be impossible to capture the depth of the spokes on the camaro (without costing a billion dollars), but several of you guys have come very close. All of these are gorgeous wheels. To the photoshop machine, batman!

      Welcome the the world of wheels...the more you look,the more confused you'll be,lol.

      Try to narrow it down to 3-4 styles you REALLY like then whitle it down from there.This will be a long,drawn out process so dig in for the long haul.

      I will tell you if you decide to go with the Fuel design,you'll have some unique wheels no one else currently has so if that matters to you at all,take that for what it's worth.

      hah, no kidding. I spent 5 years looking for my first set...



      Finally got them, got them mounted, and went "wait a tic, this isn't what I ordered at all"--I ended up with 9.5's when I ordered 9's. Year one did the right thing and took them back, so a big bravo on their part, but now that I've had the chance to see them on the car...I can't help but play with other ideas i have swirling around in the back of my head.

      Those wheels have kind of a BSS e50's look to them. Probably lighter than a lot of wheels, but not the prettiest.

      not that I don't like 'em...just figure that I should be super-sure about my choice this time. So I'm exploring all the crazy ideas I have left in the back of my head just to make sure none of them kick butt.

      and I do too! Ok fine no I don't. I just copy and paste all day.

      Have you seen the newer Nissan 350z wheels? They are kind of like what you're looking for but they are 5 on 4.5" bolt circle.
