Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

It looks MUCH better lowered a little more. They're kinda growing on me seeing them again. That color compliments them.

Maybe a sport bumper in the rear?

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

That color is awesome. Always liked it, and I think the rims give the truck an updated appearance, the colors compliment one another.

I like them, has a more "modern" look. Now, go grab a 427 out of a new Camaro and complete the deal!

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

I like them! A sport bumper on the rear will also help cleaning up the lines of your truck. What helper bags do you have on the rear?

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

What did the spacers/adapter set you back? I'm running a 1in on the wheels in the rear right now. No issues. I'm seriously going to get some of these for my truck if it does not sell. I think the blue on my truck with those wheels would set it off. It did a ton of good for the OP's truck.

Looks sweet! Really modernizes (if that's a real word) the square body style.

A roll pan or sport bumper will be going on. Hopefully soon.

I have a 400 in mine as well. The previous owner thought it had a 305 so he put a tbi unit from a 87 on it. Needless to say it doesnt run well... How much was your Fuel injection setup?

Back on topic, I love them rims, been thinking about putting them on mine for about a week or so. A set of 4 with tires runs from 500-700 here. I think they would look great with the 4/6 drop on mine.

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

I think the wheels are just right for the ride height you have now. The rubber on the wheel lines right up with the fender. I like it.

I think that your truck would look a little better, with the Camaro wheels, if you shaved the mirrors. Don't get me wrong I like the mirrors if your going with the original classic look. However, with those wheels it looks more sporty and sleek. Shaving the mirrors would make it look a little more sporty which would match the wheels. Just my .02 cents.

I think some wheels are 'too much' for a truck. With your paint scheme I think the Camaro wheels match really well. Take care!

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

I realize you went to the 5 X 4.75 adapter, but arent the Camaro wheels a metric pattern? Not much difference but still......was there any issues with getting them to center?

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

I'm pretty sure some of the metric patterns interchange. 5x127mm is the same as 5x5.

I had these on my truck for a bit. I ended up selling them. For some reason I wanted something different.

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

Yes, I am going to say it.... I love the "90s" look, and like the 5 stars better.

There is always something that makes your truck your truck. Whatever you like the best, and in your eyes have a vision of what the truck is suppose to look like is what i recommend to my buddies when they ask for opinions..


Yes I am stuck in the 90's

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

Personally agree. I love a wheel with A LOT of offset, reason why i have a set of 15x14 eagle alloy's lol i agree. Buddy at work always asks what to do on his truck. I say do what your heart says. If u like black go black. If ya like red go red. Your truck customize it your way.

Re: 2010 Camaro Wheels on Lowered C10

I think those Camaro wheels are the tits.....I've been kicking around the idea of running some of those 18 inch black steels off a modern camaro. They look a lot like the black sport wheels I run now, but give me a little more wheel. I still haven't seen anyone else doing that setup.
