Honest opinions on these wheels

**ertoys** · 06-17-2005

For a 67 Camaro?

I am on a budget in the wheel/tire dept for now.
But I cannot drive the car without moving up to 16s or 17s to clear the brakes.

So I am looking for some decent and inexpensive wheels to hold me over until I can spend the $2,000.00+ on wheels.

So please keep that in mind.

17X8- 5" bs, rears are 17X9.5- 5.5" bs.

Only $200. per wheel

Just my thoughts. They don't look like they will do anything for the car.
Remember, You are better to do it right the first time, in the end it's a lot less expensive.

I'm thinking 40 Ford, but not 67 Camaro.

Why not just hold off until you can the ones you really want? You're spending More if you buy some now, then buy more later. Just something to think about.

That is not a bad price....Are these what you want or?????

**DeepBlue68** · 06-17-2005

I don't really care for them that much. If you just need a set of temporary wheels and can't wait to buy your actual final set, why not just buy a set of crappy used wheels/tires in a package deal off eBay?

**JJSmitches** · 06-17-2005

What about the Crager Soft 8's?. I think they are less than $60 for 17x8 or 17x9s..assuming this is only supposed to be a temporary solution.

I'm not a big fan of the "twist" look. But thats a decent price on those wheels if you really like 'em.

**Ralph LoGrasso** · 06-18-2005

I'm not a big fan of them. Check out the American Racing Rebel. It's a heavy wheel, but pretty nice, and around $200 per wheel. It sort of looks like the Fikse FM/5. I think PHR said they were going to use these on the G/28 eventaully also.

**TonyL** · 06-18-2005

i dont like them either, they look like mini truck wheels (not that there is anything wrong with that) the look and spoke count implys a 6 lug wheel.

are you certain thats not the case here?

/is also a avid mini trucker

Thanks for your input!

I really am just looking for some temporary wheels, but I was not real sure about these either thats why I asked.

I will look into your suggestions.

I also do not care much for them. You must have also had some doubts about them too I imagine. Take all of the advice above and just save your money for the wheels you want. You will be muh happier.

Those would be really nice though since you are just looking for something to roll your car around on that will clear the brakes. You could sell them when you get the new ones and make back some of the money.

**ertoys** · 06-20-2005

Thanks to all of you for your input. I have decided to go with these instead I was not real sure about the others anyway.

These are the same wheels as Bwarren on this site I like them much better.

Hopefully these will get better reviews.

Thanks again,
Ed

**CAMAROBOY69** · 06-20-2005

Yes much better.

**ertoys** · 07-13-2005

I have not driven it much yet just yet. I just tooled around the neighborhood a bit.

**CAMAROBOY69** · 07-13-2005

Thats wayy better than the other wheels you were going to get. Very nice!

**69rs** · 07-13-2005

Yes! Not just better, those look good. What are they? I need wheels before I can do my suspension and need them to be cheap. (I need a smiley that is pulling his pockets inside out showing "no money"!)

**69rs** · 07-13-2005

BTW-Nice car!:icon996:

**Blue70** · 07-13-2005

Now that looks good, much better than the others...
Car is looking good
