thanks guys!!! You know I think lowering springs would be the best mod for me.
My car looks like "79camarodivas" because of how high it sits because of my weight reduction, granted I dont have an intake or acessorys on my motor

WTF is opion? Do you mean Opium?
Just leave the wheels alone. Camaro rims belong on a camaro, firebird rims belong on a firebird, z06 wheels belong on z06's, u get the picture.

I dunno, it just looks awkward. I guess u can say there are certain types that will look good, but why the hell would you put something on your car that says "Camaro" when its really a firebird? Its like putting WS6 badges on kaseys car. For instance, I had the 16" iroc's on my pro/am... looks awesome... but i didnt have the caps on. i guess the firebird rims on your camaro wouldnt be too bad as long as the centercaps arent on.

I agree. Factory wheels belong on the car that they were OE on. It's almost like you expect to see them on a particular type of car.

Well, they are on now, just so I don't lose them. I am getting new decals for the center caps though. I love the look of crosslaces on any 3rd gen....

you do not need drag radials in a couple of months. Couple of years MAYBE.
