Hey guys I own a 70 camaro and when I bought the car it came with 2 piece 15" cragar street stars. I am not a big fan of the wheels but all my money went to engine and tranny. I have been driving the car most of the summer when one of my front wheels cracked. So I figure now is a good time to get the wheels I want. I just bought a wheel fitment tool by wheel rite, but I havent takin any measurements yet. Basicaly what I am looking for is a set of afordable wheels we're talking like $1500. They would have to be black 17's or 18's, 18's would be better with a 5 x 4.75'' bolt pattern, aprox. 7" wide in front and 10" wide in back, remember I am dealing with stock wheel wells and factory ride hieght. And I would like to have them with in a couple weeks so I can drive the car a little more this summer. If anyone had any recomendtions it would be great!!
PS. No tt2's, I like the pro touring look.

You could consider BMW wheels. Do a search on this forum and see what comes up. It will fit right in your budget.

Take a look at (e.g.): https://www.pro-touring.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36006 , wheels in that thread are also available with black centers.

With that budget, it's going to be hard to get 18's, but we can figure something out. Vintage Wheel Works is QUICK, we have several sets that have been ready to ship in less than 36hrs from order, to our custom backspaces. Give me a call: 951-609-3483

Coy's wheels fit your budget for sure. They might look too similar to a TT2 for your tastes though. Personally, I think they're just different enough.
